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 householder applications
How this application type works
Householder applications cover work to an existing house and its garden: extensions, loft and garage conversions, porches, outbuildings and similar alterations within the boundary of the home. They cannot be used to create a separate dwelling or change what the building is used for. Councils aim to decide them within eight weeks, and immediate neighbours are usually notified and given a chance to comment.

AT/2021/0195 Granted
Flat 1 Hillsborough Hillesdon Road Torquay TQ1 1QF
T1:Oak tree semi mature. Approximate height of 10 meters. This tree has been reduced several times in the past to retain the height so that it doesn't block the light and view from the flats in the building. Requesting permission to reduce the tree by 1-2 meters back to where it has previously been done. T2; Multi stemmed Holm Oak, Mature, approx height of 20 meters. Part owned by 2 properties. This tree is multi stemmed with a large crown that grows over a garage, decking area and paths/steps. There's been a branch that's broken off over the winter that landed on the roof of the garden and caused damage and there is a massive issue with bird feces all over the paths, steps and handrails that leads up to the parking area and garages which is causing a hygiene problem as the residences rely heavily on these walkways and the handrails for support along with it being slippery under foot. The tree itself is has 12 stems some of which are very top heavy, after monitoring them in the wind there is a large degree of movement which will have to be managed. We are applying to reduce the height of the tree by 40-50% back to growth points where possible and remove the left hand limb so it doesn't overhang the pathways. This will retain the tree for the future as well as reducing the risk of anything happening to the tree and almost certainly remove the issue of bird feces.
