Planning application
S26/1247
24 High Street St Martins Stamford Lincolnshire PE9 2LJ
Proposal
T1 Mature Common walnut. The tree is in poor condition and has lost its crown density. It has started to form deadwood. The tree has fungal fruiting bodies of the pathogenic ?Brittle cinder fungus? (Kretschmaria deusta), at the base of the tree on the south side. The bark around the fungal fruiting bodies is dead for approximately 1m of the basal circumference accounting for approximately 1/3rd of the total basal circumference. We wish to fell the tree and replant with a paper bark maple Acer griseum.

What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with South Kesteven 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.
