Planning application
25/P/1756/TPO
3 Brean Down Avenue Weston-super-Mare BS23 4JH
Proposal
T1 - Monterey Cypress - Reduce end weight of lateral branches by up to 1.5 meters, remove compromised dynamic cable brace and install new. cable brace has been installed previously (date unknown), this has no slack and is under constant tension, the contact point with the stems is now strangling the tree. I believe the end weight reduction will reduce some of the constant tension on the current cable brace, allowing us to remove it and correctly install a new dynamic cable brace with a yearly inspection plan to monitor any adverse movement/tension.

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