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.

  T1 Birch and T2 Birch - The trees have been previously pruned back, before the property became part of the Dartmouth Park Conservation Area, when the area was extended last year. The overhanging branches are causing damage to the deck and wooden wall, so we would like to prune them back again. This will be small branches no more than 7.5cm in diameter and the trunks and larger branches will be retained. The tress are about 5m tall and the trunks around 2.5m tall. There are other trees in adjacent properties, that back on to our property. Some of these have TPOs, but are around 20m away and will not be impacted.
