   Decision issued: Grant full certificate

3. 23 Jul 2026

   Added to PlanIndex

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.

A lawful development certificate is a legal determination, not a planning judgement. It asks the council to confirm either that existing use or works are lawful, often through the passage of time, or that a proposal would not need planning permission at all. The applicant must prove the facts; the merits of the scheme are not considered.

  Nottingham Trent University The Maltings Whitemoor Road Nottingham Nottingham City NG6 0HN

  T1 & T2 sycamore group - Property owners behind the university have complained the at tree is causing issues with shading and its size. The size of the tree is having an impact on the owners being able to enjoy the use of the rear garden as when in leaf there will be very little light. The tree is mature with a large crown and is located very close to the property, and some of the branches almost touch the roof. Works would be to framework pollard the tree reducing the height and lateral spread by approx 3-4 m thus allowing the tree to be retained.

  8 Haversham Close Nottingham Nottingham City NG6 0JQ

  The tree (and it may be more than a single tree) has grown to such a large extent that it is damaging the boundary fence and overshadows half of the rear garden. During high winds the worry is that it could fall and damage the house, possibly killing the occupants. The tree is identified by means of a red arrow on the detailed google plan. The work required is to trim the overhanging branches back to the boundary or to reduce its height and spread to the satisfaction of the City Council. The tree species is not known. Tree is within Bar Lane Industrial Estate NG6 0JA. Ownership is MEADOW LANE SERVICES LIMITED (Co. Regn. No. 11850392) of 1 Pinnacle Way, Pride Park, Derby DE24 8ZS.
