Planning application
Hollycroft Old Hollings Hill Guiseley Leeds LS20 8EW
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
G1 Row of Yew: Prune the overhanging branches back by approximately 3 metres, reducing the existing overhang from approximately 7 metres to approximately 4 metres. The works will be undertaken selectively and sympathetically, retaining the overall form and amenity value of the trees. The proposed pruning is considered appropriate for the species and will not adversely affect the health, structural condition or long-term viability of the trees.

The process from here
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.
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.
