The process from here
The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.
Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.
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.

Chelston Tower Mews Rawlyn Road Torquay TQ2 6PQ
T1- Holm Oak- framework pollard an application submitted in 2023 was refused for the removal of T1 and replanting in a more suitable position. T1 is a semi mature Holm Oak tree that completely covers the path at the property. this property is communal grounds and the client has a responsibility to keep the grounds safe for his tenants to use the garden area, unfortunately the leaves and droppings from the tree are causing a significant health and safety risk to tenants using the path because the path is becoming very shaded and slippery when leaf fall occurs. my client would like to resolve this issue by carry out a framework pollard and then managing the tree cyclically every 3 years by repollarding this still keeps the benefit of the tree but allows him to keep his tenants safe. the tree is currently 12 meters in height and 8 meters in spread we wish to pollard to 10 meters in height and 6 meters in spread the tree does not hold significant value within the landscape and the sight has various other large trees that contribute to the landscape so the proposed works would not negatively impact the landscape in any way but would allow the various site users to remain safe when using the garden path.

5 Day Notice Fell - Dangerous tree. Has sufferred significant structural deterioration following the failure and subsequent removel of a large scaffold limb. Inspection has revealed extensive decay and rot affecting the main stem and lower structure of the tree. The loss of the major limb has exposed a substantial wound through which decay organisms have become established. The presence of Kretzschmaria deusta (brittle cinder fungus) at the base of the tree, together with symptoms consistent with advanced root and butt decay. Due to the close proxmity to the public highway on Seaway Lane it presents an unacceptable danger to highway users, pedestrians and property.
