   Added to PlanIndex

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.

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.

  Revised specification agreed 09/09/2019: REAR: ONE Sycamore (T1)(ht.approx.12-14m) REDUCE HEIGHT by approx.2m to approx.ht.10-12m, REDUCE RADIUS by approx.0.5m from approx.4m to 3.5m, CROWN LIFT to 3-4m as required. Remove ivy (exempt works). Reason: to reduce size of tree relative to approved rear extension at 126, to improve light to garden and allow time to re-appraise the tree within the rear garden landscape. REAR (in adjacent garden): ONE Sycamore (T2)(approx.ht.16-18m) REDUCE HEIGHT by approx.3m to approx.ht 13-15m of 'lion-tail' vertical branches, LATERAL REDUCTION by 3.6m from 7.1m to 3.5m on the NW compass point. Sever ivy (exempt works). Reason: to rectify previous partial crown reduction and alleviate branches overhanging the rear garden of 126. REAR: ONE Sycamore (T3) FELL ht.4.5m. Reason: self-set amongst soil and rubble, to be cleared, and obstructing boundary re-fencing. Voluntary replacement with hawthorn, possibly also holly and hazel along rear boundary. Informative: it is greatly appreciated that the original proposals have been amended to retain the sycamore (T1) for the present, to allow time to re-appraise the tree within the rear garden landscape and the tree's contribution to the boroughs tree canopy cover and urban forest ecosystem services. Informative: Where a tree is on the boundary and is the joint responsibility of the applicant and the neighbour, or where consent is sought for trees on adjacent properties, any necessary agreements or permissions from the owner(s) need to be obtained before carrying out any tree work that may be permitted by the LPA. The cut off parts of the tree remain the owner's property and should be offered back.
