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 lawful development applications
How this application type works
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.

158A Woodsley Road Woodhouse Leeds LS2 9LZ
T1, T2 and T3 Horse Chestnut - The three trees have caused the brick wall to lean onto the pavement and road besides it. Eventually, the wall will give in and fall directly on to the pavement and road which is a hazard to any nearby pedestrians. We need these three trees felling in order to prevent this from happening.
