Proposal
T1 Laburnum - Need to remove tree in my front garden which is partially fallen (grows initially along the ground rather than vertically). The tree does not fully flower and is not thriving. I will review and potentially plant a smaller tree. In addition I would like to prune or remove a smaller mahonia tree next to and tangled up with the laburnum. I think this will be ok to work on looking at the rules as the trunk is quite small however I wanted to check. The holly on the corner of the plot will remain

What a grant of permission means
The process from here
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.
About trees applications
How this application type works
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.
