Planning application
1A, Suncroft, The Old Street, Fetcham, Leatherhead, Surrey, KT22 9QL
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 - Reduce the height from approx. 13m to approx. 10m and reduce the spread by approx. 2.0m to retain the current shape/appearance as determined previously by the tree surgeon. T2 - Reduce the height of the branches/twigs immediately adjacent to the overhead phone line to give a clearance of approx. 0.5m. The amount removed from each relevant branch will vary from approx. 1.0m to 0.5m, resulting in a localized reduction in height from approx. 8m to 7m. T3 - Complete removal to ground level with stump grinding. T4 - Reduce main branch lengths by 1-2.5m approx. as required to maintain the openness and visual balance of the tree and to avoid overgrowth of the wall/road and the neighbouring property and at the same time improving the natural light levels in the ?living? rooms at the front of 1A

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 trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
