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

50 Park Road Penwortham Residential Park Penwortham Preston Lancashire PR1 9YD
We wish to apply for permission to prune back five sycamore tree saplings adjacent to and overshadowing our property. The saplings are on the end of an old railway embankment beside our property and adjacent to Park Road. Recently, one of these saplings broke off in windy weather and landed on our garden close to a Park Road, the public right of way on Park Road and an overhead telephone line. The sapling was 4 metres long and around 8 cm in diameter. If we had been in the garden when it fell, it could have caused us harm. Also, if the sapling had fallen in a different direction, it could have fallen on people passing by on a right of way or vehicles on Park Road. I have provided a sketch plan and photos identifying the saplings. We are concerned about risk to ourselves, our property, people passing by, passing cars and the telephone line. We emphasise, these are saplings not full size trees. There are many such saplings along with shrubs in the area but on enquiry to South Ribble Council on 1.6.26, we were advised we had to apply for planning permission for work on these.
