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.

    Please refer to photos provided: Red circle) Sycamore (4 trunks) - One trunk is significantly removed from the others and leaning towards my house; I would like this one trunk removed (cut back to a stump). For the remaining 3 trunks, crown reduction of approximately 5m, ensuring that a balanced shape is maintained. The Sycamore has grown significantly since its previous pollarding, with the seeds causing significant issues. If left untended the seeds will push up the paving stones of the Village development and embed themselves within the original boundary wall causing brickwork damage.
