Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

A lawful development certificate is a legal determination, not a planning judgement. It asks the council to confirm either that existing use or works are lawful, often through the passage of time, or that a proposal would not need planning permission at all. The applicant must prove the facts; the merits of the scheme are not considered.

  2 St Johns Street Oulton Leeds LS26 8JT

  T1 Lime - Tree requires removal due to the close proximity to the building. The tree is heavily one sided and has a significant lean over the building causing concern. There are small areas of decay present on the main stem. T1 is in competition with a mature Beech tree and the removal of the lime tree will benefit the beech to continue growing with balance. The customer has adequate space further away from the building if replanting is requested.
