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.

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.

• Land Rear Of 1 - 5 Churchwood Great Coates Road Grimsby North East Lincolnshire DN37 9NS

  DM/1137/23/TCA Submitted 22 Nov 2023 131m away

  Fell x4 Common Ashes (T5-T8) located to the rear of 1-5 Churchwood. Reason: due to significant debris which is causing damage to grass in garden areas and there is a safety risk to residents due to falling branches and excessive bird muck coating the back and side pathway, creating a slip hazard. Previous canopy management has not reduced the shedding/debris issues and so a permanent long term solution is required.

  1 Green Acres Waltham Grimsby North East Lincolnshire DN37 0QG

  am writing regarding a large spruce at 1 Green Acres, Waltham, DN37 0QG. The tree is very large and mature and is situated close to the property. Its dense canopy causes substantial shading and a significant loss of natural daylight to the house and garden. I would be grateful if you could confirm whether this spruce is covered by a Tree Preservation Order and, if so, provide the TPO reference and plan identifying the tree. I would also like to request that a Tree Officer inspects the tree and considers whether removal would be appropriate given its current size, proximity to the property and the significant shading it causes. I note that the Council has previously permitted the removal and reduction of TPO-protected trees at 4 and 5 Green Acres where shading and proximity to properties were relevant considerations, including application DM/0101/20/TPO at 4 Green Acres. If removal were considered appropriate, I would be happy to discuss suitable replacement planting in a more appropriate location.
