Planning application
R24/0886
87, MAIN STREET, LONG LAWFORD, RUGBY, CV23 9BB
Proposal
T1 Spruce, cut to ground, Large mature Spruce in reasonable physiological condition, close proximity to property. Shallow rooted species, has sunken lane to North restricting root spread, problems associated with shallow rooted trees are exacerbated here by shallow soil layer over building waste. Tree has been height pruned previously presumably to help cope with this situation. However on inspecting the tree on 16/9/24 there was a gap between the bottom of the stem and the soil layer of 20mm+ indicating movement in the stem. T2 Rowan, prune back tips of crown on South side by 1m, tree has low weak union, pruning to alleviate weight stresses on lower union.

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.
