   Added to PlanIndex

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.

An amendment application changes a permission that already exists. Non-material amendments cover small adjustments with no wider effect, while minor material amendments, usually made by varying a condition, allow modest design changes without a fresh application. Anything beyond that needs a new permission, so the scope here is deliberately narrow.

  Photo 1 Shows the three trees in question. The trees are protruding out of the cliff wall below our garden safety fence they have not been trimmed for many years and we have recently moved in so we wish to stop any further cliff damage from the weight of the canopy Tree 1 We wish to trim the top canopy see image 3 for clarity. Tree 2 We wish to remove as it is causing the upper part of the cliff to be unstable. It?s is very close to Tree 1 It is also causing excessive damp and leaves in our neighbours garden below making it difficult for them to be kept safe as the leaves all fall on their flat roof below which is causing damage. If the tree was to become more unstable / dangerous or even fall it would go straight through their roof Tree 3 is about 12 feet further down the cliff and we wish to trim this so it does not get too large and cause further cliff damage or fall onto the property below. At present it is medium size and it would be prudent to not let it get larger. Photo 2 Shows the same three trees but from the Terrace at the front of the building. Photo 3 Shows the trim area on Tree 1 The removal of Tree 2 and the trim area on tree 3 Photo 4 is an aerial / plan view of the property location and the trees involved.
