Decision issued: Part Refusal/Part Consent (TPO)
What refusal means
The process from here
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.
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.

13 Smithy Lane Scarisbrick Ormskirk Lancashire L40 8HH
Mixed conifer row situated on the left hand boundary of 13 Smithy Lane, starting at the entrance gate and running up to the rear boundary (G1 on sketch plan). Proposing to fell the entire group to ground level, grind out remaining stumps, and replant during the winter. Planting species will be dependent on stock at a local nursery, but we always advise replacing non-native species with native ones to boost biodiversity.
