The process from here
This application is with Stockport 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.

1 Ranworth Avenue Heaton Mersey Stockport SK4 3DB
We have recently acquired this property. We have noticed that there is a large tree to the side of the house which does not look to have been maintained, together with a hedge row of conifers which have been required to grow alongside the boundary wall with Mersey Road. In respect of the large tree, you will see from the pictures that it has been allowed to grow to a height where it is impacting the cables coming into the house and we are concerned about its impact on the house and/or the boundary wall. In relation to the hedge row of conifers, we had a full structural survey of the property carried out before acquiring the property, which highlighted these as a concern (again, they do not look to have been maintained and/or trimmed for some time). We are happy to share a copy of that report but what it stated is "To the left hand side of the property, there is a continuous line of trees which have pushed the small height garden outwards causing a tilt. Should the trees continue to grow in the future, it is possible that the wall may become damaged to the point where a take down and rebuild may be necessary". What we wanted to do, was to have a specialist to come in and look at lowering the height of the main tree by the side of house, and then look at the conifers as well. The conifers have been allowed to grow to a height where they actually looking to be dying due to the amount of moisture they must have been consuming. HAR/CA14.
