   The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development. Extensions of time are common.

This application is with Leeds for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

  86A Potternewton Lane Chapel Allerton Leeds LS7 3LW

  T1- Mediterranean/Italian Cypress (Cupressus Sempervirens) which is located in our courtyard at the corner of Methley Place and Zermatt Street. The tree is very close to our boundary wall (onto the footway at the very bottom of Methley Place) and is affecting the structure of that wall (which appears to be an original feature) and also the structure of our neighbour's extension (84a - the other side of our semi-detached dwelling). The tree has grown much too tall, but at any height is much too close to a physical structure. There is no tree preservation order in place but it is located within the Chapel Allerton Conservation Area (shown on attached plan). Although not the fast growing leylandii species - it has growth considerably in the 12? years we have owned this property. Permission is sought to remove the tree entirely. The nature of the tree means that reduction to a more appropriate height would essentially leave bare trunk - and would not mitigate the trees impact on the adjacent structures. The tree can be seen on the attached sketch plan details (showing location and photo). And on Google Streetview https://maps.app.goo.gl/sYgLYLbXCgpoY4gb8 Centre front of this image adjacent to the gate to our courtyard (labelled 86a). Our neighbour's house is visible to the left of the tree - but the extension which the tree is affecting can barely be seen (a beige painted render strip visible over the wall, above their house number plate 84A)

  86 Potternewton Lane Chapel Allerton Leeds LS7 3LW

  Mature Horsechestnut tree on the boundary of 86-84 Potternewton Lane.: 10% crown thin throughout the crown would allow a little more light through to both gardens and reduce the dominating effect of the large canopy. 1.0m reduction on the eastern aspect of the tree which overhangs the neighbours property at number 84. Crown lift (and clean up of epicormic growth on the stem) to 4m.

  To The Rear Of Lidl 11 Harrogate Road Moortown Leeds LS7 3NB

  T1 - Fell Sycamore tree at the rear of Lidl, opposite The Jade Centre ( see sketch plan). The tree team attended site to remove a snapped branch and could tell from the major amount of bark necrosis that an unidentified sap/bark pathogen has advanced enough that the tree should be considered for removal as it poses a 'risk to life' from major dead wood failure. I would like to propose the removal of this tree due to concerns over the risks posed to pedestrians and motorists using Blake Grove. Replant recommendation Tilia x europaea
