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.

Hill Farm Woodmansterne Street Woodmansterne Surrey SM7 3NF
Yard Area - Right Hand Side. T1 - Ash, Fell as close to ground level as possible. Works to be carried out with the use of a MEWP. Due to the cavity in dominant leader at a height of approximately 3.5 metres from ground level - cut and stack all logs. The tree is located to the front of the stables to the right hand side of the yard area. There is a large cavity at a height of approximately 3.5m from ground level and approximately 0.2 - 0.5m above the main crown break within the dominant stem which over hangs the stable building roof . Due to the size of the cavity the tree would require significant reduction to stabilize which would also include the adjacent dominant stem to balance leaving a Monolith trunk and removing all amenity and aesthetics value . This is a high load bearing limb with risk of complete failure if retained leading to significant damage to the stables building . The tree appears to becoming slightly stag headed which could be early signs of Ash Dieback

Land Adjacent To 150 Fleetwood Close Tadworth Surrey KT20 5PG
Trees 1 and 2 (adjacent 150) prune back from their dwelling/garage by circa 3m and remove deadwood. The branches of both trees are extending across the curtilage of 150 Fleetwood Close. Some are in close proximity to the dwelling. Early pruning work, as requested, will enable the tree crown to be managed without recourse to substantial pruning cuts. Early intervention is therefore considered to be best practice in accordance with BS3998:2010: Tree Works - Recommendations. Tree 3 reduce height to circa 6m above ground level. The tree is in decline and presents no regenerative growth from lower on the branches or stem structure. If regenerative growth had been present it would have been feasible to specify pruning works to suitable growth points. Given the state of decline and absence of suitable pruning points it is considered prudent to remove the major branches but retain the lower stem for its ecological value. Works can be undertaken in accordance with BS3998:2010: Tree Works - Recommendations.
