The council has decided this application; the published outcome sits in the record above and the decision notice on the council portal carries the detail, including any conditions.

If permission was granted, work must normally begin within three years of the decision. If it was refused, the applicant can appeal within the statutory time limit or submit a revised scheme.

Telecommunications applications cover masts, antennas and cabinets, most of which come forward as prior approval cases under permitted development rules. The council typically has 56 days to consider siting and appearance only. The need for the network itself is treated as established, so objections carry most weight where they address visual impact or siting.

• Beech Lodge 5 Orchard Close Brixham TQ5 0LS

  T1 European lime Tilia x europaea T1 is a mature lime tree that is growing within close proximity of the neighbouring building (within 1m) due to its size limbs are becoming heavily weighted and more likely to fail. Also large amounts of deadwood and debris regularly fall of the roof. T1 is growing very close to a mature beech tree and starting to affect the shape of the beech tree. I would like to reduce T1 by 20% in order to match the final height of the beech tree adjacent. this will keep the tree safe next to building by removing weight from weighted branches. and keep the aesthetics of the trees growing as one canopy. I would also like to remove the lowest primary overhanging the neighbours roof. T2 Beech Fagus sylvatica T2 is a mature beech tree growing within close proximity of beech lodge and the neighbouring property. I would like to reduce t2 by 30% and reshape as marked it pic 1. this will remove risk from heavily weighted branches failing, and reduce the amount the tree catches the wind in a built up area. reducing the risk of the tree while keeping the tree for the aesthetics of the road. this should be maintained every 5 years on a cyclical basis

  T1. Copper Beech tree (Fagus Sylvatica f. Purpurea) Mature, approximate height of 20 meters. Applying for permission to crown lift the lower branches one of which is a medium branches which wouldn't change the shape of the tree and a reduction of the crown by 2-3 meters. The reasons behind this application are: To give more light to surrounding shrubs and small trees. Reduce the extended branches lessoning the weight. Retain the tree at a size that's in keeping with its surroundings with now being a good time for a reduction due to a good amount of reduction points on small branches. Give more light to the neighbouring house which is overshadowed by both the Beech tree and the Lime tree. There is a new house being built near the tree at the bottom of the garden with a Sedum roof which would benefit from having more light but also less leaves falling onto the roof in the autumn.
