Planning application

21/00292/TPOC

Woodpeckers East Street Addington West Malling Kent ME19 5DE

Granted Tonbridge and Malling Tree Preservation Order Consent

Proposal

Pine (T1). The raising of crown to approx 18m. This tree stands within the rear garden of no 5 Plowenders Close and backs onto the applicant's rear garden. It has previously had several of its west facing, lower branches removed, leaving it looking slightly unbalanced. The applicant now seeks to have several of the lower, east facing branches that reach far into her garden removed in order to reduce over-shading and debris and to provide a visually balanced appearance. Any amenity value will remain

As published by the council, reference 21/00292/TPOC

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.
