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.

Works to trees in a Conservation Area. To remove two trees within the Dulwich Village Conservation Area. 1x Sambucus sp. 1x Ilex aquilfolium. Please see the attached photos of the trees in question. Neither of these trees have been shown or categorised on the approved tree plans, and only one has been shown on the topo survey. 1x Sambucus sp. estimated dbh of <100mm and 1x Ilex aquilfolium estimated dbh of <200mm are requested to be removed on the eastern aspect of the existing building. Reason for this is the required forklift has proven to be too wide and would likely cause damage to both trees as well as the machine. KIND are aware the removal of these trees may require replacement. Neither of these trees have been shown or categorised on the approved tree plans.
