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The applicant is free to submit a revised application at any time, and many withdrawn schemes return in amended form, so the site is worth watching if the proposal affected you.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

  T001 Copper beech (Fagus sylvatica purpurea) - Sectionally dismantle and fell. T001 is situated approximately 1.2 metres from the dwelling, with 6?7 metres of canopy overhang, resulting in physical interference with the building, retaining wall damage consistent with root expansion, shading of habitable rooms, and ongoing maintenance burden . Although assessed as a tolerable risk, its retention would require repeated pruning that is considered unsustainable and likely to compromise its long-term form . The report also notes that the tree?s public visibility and wider amenity value are limited, with substantial surrounding tree cover maintaining local character . Replacement planting in a more suitable location within the garden is recommended , ensuring continued tree cover without the existing structural conflict or adverse impact on the enjoyment of the property.
