Planning application

1 Cedars Avenue Rickmansworth Hertfordshire WD3 7AW
Proposal
Tall old fir tree to be felled. Reason is because 1 m proximity to the outbuilding, significant lean towards the outbuilding and Cedars Avenue pedestrian path. Also a concern being so close to the Uxbridge Road. Tree Surgeon had suggested lifting the tree away from the building and reducing the height but that would not give the tree little amenity value. Applicant has agree to plant a more appropriate garden tree away from the roads and fence lines to replace the Cypress.

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.
