What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Lewisham 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 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.

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.
