What happens at appeal
The process from here
This application is at appeal, which passes the decision from the council to the national planning inspectorate, or in Scotland usually to a local review body first. The appeal considers the scheme afresh against the same policies.
Anyone who commented on the original application is normally notified and can comment again within the appeal deadline. Appeal decisions take months rather than weeks, and the outcome replaces the council's decision.
About full applications applications
How this application type works
A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.

GROUND FLOOR, 54 ST GERMAN'S ROAD, LONDON, SE23 1RX
ONE Horse Chestnut tree (T5) FELL Ht: 9mONE Oak tree - CROWN REDUCTION by 3m from 12m to 9m (The tree is of a size that would allow for a reduction without reducing the amenity) If we can secure felling of the horse chestnut imminently we can use the summer to continue to monitor any movement and if some persists in the right direction can then implement the oak tree work subject to speaking with the tree owners and LB Lewisham to ensure the communication channel is open and transparent. Mitigation Given the concern of local residents and tree loss we propose to remove the shrubbery behind the small wall adjacent to the footpath and plant 4 x new trees of extra heavy standard or 2 x semi mature trees (species to be agreed) in addition we will install a root deflector running the length of the wall with a return at each end. The provision of sizeable trees (at least 2) will provide an instant amenity value and will also provide a sustainable longevity for the tree scape along St Germans Road. All tree planting will have a three year after care programme. The species to be provided will be programmed for Autumn 2022.
