Planning application

R21/0750

CLIFTON C OF E PRIMARY SCHOOL SCHOOL, STATION ROAD, CLIFTON UPON DUNSMORE, RUGBY, CV23 0BT

Granted Rugby Trees in conservation area

Proposal

Removal of a silver birch tree. The trees roots are breaking through the playground surface. This has caused an uneven surface for children staff and parents to play and walk across. One member of staff has already tripped on the uneven surface and fallen and broken a tooth. This hazard needs to be rectified ASAP to avoid further incidents. Once the tree is removed the playground can be resurfaced to avoid potential further incidents

As published by the council, reference R21/0750

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.
