   Awaiting decision

   Decision expected by 27 October 2026, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   Three Rivers took a median of 56 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with Three Rivers for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

This page mirrors an entry on the statutory planning register that Three Rivers is required to keep. The published feed for this record does not state which type of application it is, which is common for older entries and for some council systems; the register entry on the council portal will say, alongside the case officer and any consultation dates.

Every planning application follows the same broad path: submission, validation, publicity, then a decision by officers or committee. Our guide to planning application types explains the common types and what each can approve.

  T1 - Sycamore - approximately 10 metres - Rear garden near seating area/pergola In the past few months the customer has had 2 other sycamores fail at the base within close proximity to the remaining sycamore. Every year the tree has had less leaf production and has considerable deadwood within the crown. I have recommended to bring the tree down to a height of approx 4 metres and leave as a pollard/monolith to prevent any chance of failure due to heavy crown weight. Future inspections will take place to see the trees progression and whether removal of the monolith will have to take place. Replanting will also be arranged.
