10 Hillcrest Rise Cookridge Leeds LS16 7DL
Proposal
T1 Fir - Fell, The tree is situated in very close proximity to the boundary fence and provides minimal amenity value. Its continued growth poses a risk of future damage to the fence and nearby property. Removal is therefore recommended to prevent structural impact and to allow appropriate space for boundary maintenance. G1 Row of Firs - Carry out a crown lift and selective pruning to achieve approximately 2-3 metres clearance from the adjacent property. These works are required to prevent encroachment, reduce the risk of branch contact with the building, and maintain safe and appropriate clearance while retaining the overall screening value of the group.

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.
