What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Runnymede for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.
The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.
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.

Pine - Fell & Remove - to ground level, or as close as possible and remove all arisings. Reasons for work as follows: Safety - angle of tree encroaching fencing and house, shedding pine cones etc are sharp ground hazards for children when in garden Space / lighting - the shedding needles etc are preventing grass or anything else from growing in our garden. Would ideally like to plant other tree(s) in the space which are more in keeping with the other trees in the space.

8 Lodge Close Englefield Green Surrey TW20 0JF
T1 - Birch - fell and stump grind - tree in very poor condition: A large basal cavity extending well into the buttress/root flare. Advanced decay with soft, crumbly wood, likely white rot. Strong callus growth around the wound, showing the tree has been trying to compartmentalise the defect for a while. Epicormic shoots emerging from the base, which can be a stress response. As such the tree is now a likely risk for basal failure. Tree will be replaced with another Birch
