   Added to PlanIndex

The applicant withdrew this application before the council decided it, so it carries no planning weight and no fee refund is automatic. Withdrawal often follows officer feedback that a refusal was likely.

The applicant is free to submit a revised application at any time, and many withdrawn schemes return in amended form, so the site is worth watching if the proposal affected you.

A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.

  TPO849 T1 Proposed Works to TPO Protected Red Cedar A crown reduction of a mature Red Cedar (approximately 16 metres in height). A reduction in overall tree height of approximately 20%, equating to 3.0-3.5 metres, reducing the tree from approximately 16 metres to 12.5-13 metres in height. Selective reduction and trimming of the lateral branches to maintain the tree's natural form, symmetry and attractive appearance following the height reduction. All pruning works will be carried out in accordance with good arboricultural practice, retaining the tree's character and ensuring a balanced crown structure. Reason for the Proposed Works The tree is located on an embankment adjacent to a well-used public footpath and in close proximity to neighbouring residential gardens. The crown has continued to expand and branches now extend over our property, where previous growth has already displaced and damaged guttering on the house. Maintain public safety along the adjacent footpath. Reduce the risk of branch failure affecting neighbouring properties and gardens. Prevent further encroachment onto our property and damage to the house and guttering. Retain the long-term health, stability and amenity value of the tree while managing its size appropriately for its location.
