   Awaiting decision

   Decision expected by 9 October 2026, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   Leeds took a median of 52 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with Leeds for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

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 Lawson Cypress - Remove. The tree has grown so much it is starting to block the pathway and makes it difficult to open the gate at the back of the garden. T2 Plum - Chop the branches off that overhang from 21 Charnley Drive. When the tree has fruit on it, the branches are weighted down which makes it difficult to get to the gate at the back of the garden. The longest branch I want to cut off is around 1.5m long. There are five other branches that I'd like to cut off, but they are shorter (about 1m long each) so in total around 6.5m though they are quite high up so this is very much a guess.
