Pine House 1 Spencer Court Shadwell Leeds LS17 8AN
Proposal
T63 Semi mature Fir: Remove due to significant lean towards property caused by Storm conditions and unbalanced crown. Outlined in the REV. ARBORICULTURAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT report within 18/02580/FU Four new dwellings and conversion of Spencer House to form five dwellings. Since recent bad weather, combined with the existing condition of the unbalanced crown, there is now a significant lean towards my property which, if it fell, would strike the roof and building causing damage. I am applying to remove the tree.

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.
