Planning application
67 WORDSWORTH ROAD, RUGBY, CV22 6HZ
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Beech tree No 45 G5 After speaking to an arborist, they have suggested that the tree needs a crown lift and crown reduction to reduce the spread over the garden by around 1.5 metres. The reason for this is that the tree is covering a fifth of our garden, it is blocking out light so nothing is growing and large dead branches have fallen in our garden and this is dangerous.

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.

T58 Lawson Cypress (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana) Is covering the street light and needs to pruned around to give light to the dark pavement. Concern over safety reasons when walking in the dark. T59 Elder (Sambucus nigra) Dead tree that will need to be removed due to location near to the public path. Grid Ref: SP 49235 72892. A mature Common Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) displaying signs of ash dieback and obstructing the street light located on the boundary next to the path and substation was also identified when surveyed by Warwickshire wildlife Trust 30/08/2022. Presumably this was not picked up by the arboricultural report due to the time of year the survey was carried out. Remedial work: Remove deadwood or pollard due to proximity to path and substation.
