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.

A lawful development certificate is a legal determination, not a planning judgement. It asks the council to confirm either that existing use or works are lawful, often through the passage of time, or that a proposal would not need planning permission at all. The applicant must prove the facts; the merits of the scheme are not considered.

  T1 - Beech Homeowner is concerned about the trees lean into the neighbouring property. The tree was previously reduced approximately a year ago to reduce the weight. The homeowner is still unhappy with the movement in the canopy. I have recommended a 10-15% thin of the canopy to reduce wind loading.
