Planning application
Retreat 19 The Green Snitterfield Stratford-upon-Avon CV37 0JG
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1 - Robinia - The tree has already been pollarded by the Tree Surgeon. Since then the tree has been shooting from its roots close to the house. And this is given us cause for concern. We are a small garden and have another Robinia tree in the garden which is a lot younger and smaller which has also recently been pollarded (application ref: 26/00864/TREE). We wish to retain this tree. Our application is to remove the one Robinia which would be beneficial to the growth of other trees and potential new tree (which is more suitable for a small garden). The Tree Surgeon is also in agreement of the removal of the Robinia, due to the above. I have not provided a sketch plan as this has recently been submitted on 26/00786/TREE.

The process from here
This application is with Stratford-on-Avon 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.
