What refusal means

The process from here

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

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.

    36 Ebers Road Nottingham Nottingham City NG3 5DZ

    Proposed Works: Fell to ground level and remove one self-set ash tree (Fraxinus excelsior), approximately 8 metres in height with a DBH of approximately 30cm. The tree has established naturally within a confined space between the boundary fence and adjacent concrete driveway on the front boundary between Nos. 34 and 36. It is heavily covered in ivy from the base to the crown. The tree is considered unsuitable for retention due to its location and the damage it is causing. The adjacent driveway is exhibiting signs of root-induced heave, and roots have encroached into the property, as evidenced by the accompanying photographs. The tree is also in direct conflict with an overhead utility pole carrying approximately 10 BT/Openreach telecommunications lines. Growth has become intertwined with the cables, several of which appear to be under tension, with sections of outer sheathing visibly damaged. Given the ongoing structural damage, root encroachment, and conflict with essential utility infrastructure, removal of the tree is considered the most appropriate and proportionate management option.
