Planning application
TPO24/154
123 Royal Worcester Crescent Bromsgrove Worcestershire B60 2TG
Proposal
Chestnut tree labelled T3 in our back garden. It has been a number of years since the last weight reduction of this tree. It has previously been reviewed by Mr Gavin Boyes. Despite the tree's age, it seems to growing faster than ever. There is a history of large boughs breaking off and I am very concerned about the risk of further major boughs breaking and causing damage to property or seriously injuring family or passers by. The tree is also blocking a large amount of light into the garden and the droppage is becoming very hard to manage. We have always been proponents of preserving this tree and have respected the TPO. We do however find this tree to be a real worry given its age and history. Please can we request a further review of this tree with a view to another significant weight reduction of the tree

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.
