Planning application

PAP/2024/0463

54 Minworth Road Water Orton Birmingham B46 1NH

Granted North Warwickshire Trees in a Conservation Area Works Notification

Proposal

Works to trees within a conservation area. The work to be undertaken is on a bay tree of approximately 7 metres in height located in the rear garden of 54 Minworth Road. It is located next to the boundary fence with 56 Minworth Road, and the excessive upwards growth of the tree canopy is blocking light to the patio and rear windows of 56 Minworth Road. It is also creating shadow over the garden of number 54, stunting lawn growth. The work involves reducing the overall height of the tree by approximately 2 metres via removing the top part of the crown. The work will be undertaken in late November 2024 by a tree surgeon (from JC Tree and Grounds Maintenance) who has assessed the tree and the proposals. We also request approval to prune the tree during 2025, 2026 and 2027, should that be necessary to maintain the tree canopy at a suitable height and shape

What a grant of permission means

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.
