What a grant of permission means

The process from here

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.

About householder applications

How this application type works

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.

    REAR: ONE dead tree (ht.5-6m) FELL. Duty to replace applies. Reason: possibly a crab apple tree, dead and leaning; re-planting proposed when the stump / roots have rotted a bit we will be planting a new tree in its place, probably after just summer, the branches facing our garden have slowly rotted off (photos attached) and there are multiple small animal burrows and a big one (1.5inch diameter) at the base, through the tree. Informative A: the landowner has a duty to plant another tree of an appropriate size and species when a tree is removed in a conservation area because it is dead or presents an immediate risk of serious harm. Ref. Tree Preservation Orders and trees in conservation areas, guidance, para 121. Informative B: huge thank you for proposed replacement tree planting, suggest a similar berry or fruit bearing tree such as: crab apple, Amelanchier, hawthorn, elder, common pear, wayfaring tree for rear amenity, wildlife and shade to reduce increasingly high summer temperatures due to climate change. Informative C: please plant the replacement tree in an alternative location in order to retain a safe standing deadwood stem for wildlife and biodiversity and if possible also create habitat log piles with arisings. A climber could be planted to grow on the dead stem such as honeysuckle, clematis, rose, ivy.
