   Decision issued: Refused

   Added to PlanIndex

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.

Householder applications cover work to an existing house and its garden: extensions, loft and garage conversions, porches, outbuildings and similar alterations within the boundary of the home. They cannot be used to create a separate dwelling or change what the building is used for. Councils aim to decide them within eight weeks, and immediate neighbours are usually notified and given a chance to comment.

Life stage - mature. Survey notes: Main trunk divides at 4m. Trunk diameter estimated due to fences and Ivy. No cavities visible in main stem. No fungal fruiting bodies visible.

There is a long branch extending to the west which is end loaded. Ivy on main stem and throughout crown, this hinders inspection. Recommended tree surgery works: Sever Ivy at base and allow to die off to aid future inspection. Remove Deadwood. Reduce canopy to a line 1.5m offset from flats located to the north of tree.
