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.

    ( TPO0285)T1 Lime reduce the tree 1m past the previous points based on risks to the safety of people and property due to wind. Not withstanding the condition of the tree, the possibility of it toppling down increases with time due to the detrimental effects of climate change on wind storm intensity and frequency. Please note that due to the direction of the winds this rather large tree would fall onto 7 Cardiff Way. In addition to this in 2022 a Soakaway was introduced to the neighbouring property where excavation took place very near to the Lime and this may have caused destabilising of the roots, making this tree weaker
