   Decision issued: Refused

   Added to PlanIndex

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

Householder applications cover work to an existing house and its garden: extensions, loft and garage conversions, porches, outbuildings and similar alterations within the boundary of the home. They cannot be used to create a separate dwelling or change what the building is used for. Councils aim to decide them within eight weeks, and immediate neighbours are usually notified and given a chance to comment.

  FLAT 2, 118 JERNINGHAM ROAD, LONDON, SE14 5NL

  REAR: ONE Lime (T1)(approx.ht.13-14m) FELL. Reason: the high pollard lime shades the garden, which prevents hanging out washing and causes a general nuisance. Informative: the tree is not visible from the public realm, however it is part of an area of joined rear gardens which enhances rear outlooks and provides important ecosystem service benefits. One of the unintended consequences of sub-divided properties and gardens, is that there can be increased pressure to remove the hidden urban forest. A replacement tree would be greatly appreciated.
