What withdrawal means
The process from here
The applicant withdrew this application before the council decided it, so it carries no planning weight and no fee refund is automatic. Withdrawal often follows officer feedback that a refusal was likely.
The applicant is free to submit a revised application at any time, and many withdrawn schemes return in amended form, so the site is worth watching if the proposal affected you.
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.

8 Hitherwood Close Reigate Surrey RH2 0JJ
T1 Weeping Willow Tree - Fell. The reason the severe lean of the tree towards the house and the trees proximity to the house. T2 Lombardy Poplar tree - Fell. Reason: I have climbed and pruned this tree twice and reduced the height once during the last several 15 years. Whilst climbing I observed structural defects in the form of severely included bark unions and old cut open wounds with internal decay cavities. These symptoms are typical of this type of tree and with the slight lean and proximity to two houses, tree removal is required.

T3 - Beech -All round crown reduction by 2 meters. This work represents the continuation of an established pollarding cycle to manage the tree's canopy weight. The reductions are necessary to maintain statutory clearance over the adjacent public highway and footway. Managing the crown via this routine cycle mitigates excessive seasonal shading.

4 Maplehurst Close Burgh Heath Surrey KT20 5FU
T1: Beech (rear garden, left tree) - Reduce overall canopy by 2m to appropriate growth points, following BS3998 standards. The aim of the reduction is to minimise the chance of failure and to keep the tree maintained at a reasonable size before a more drastic reduction may be needed in the future. There is a poor V-shaped union between two co-dominant stems, which the reduction will reduce tip weight and minimise sail. The reduction will also aim to maintain a natural looking tree, pruning to appropriate growth points. T2: Lime (rear garden, right tree) - Reduce height of canopy by 3m and laterals reduce by 2m to appropriate growth points, following BS3998 standards. Epicormic growth to be removed from the main stem. The aim of the reduction is to keep the tree managed and to reduce the risk of failure. The tree has been lifted to 60% of its height, canopy starting at 11m. The reduction will lessen the sail, whilst keeping the tree maintained at reasonable points before a more drastic reduction is required in the future. The reduction will also aim to create a more visually appealing shape, whilst maintaining a natural looking tree. All major deadwood of 25mm in diameter or larger to be removed from both trees.
