   The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development. Extensions of time are common.

This application is with Torbay for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

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.

  3 Forgeway Close Torquay TQ2 6SH

  T1 - Sycamore - crown lift secondary branches in lower canopy back to main branches. This will achieve minimum statutory road clearance of 5.2 and clear adjacent street light for better light spread. Crown reduce dominant stem overhanging garden by 2metres to suitable growth points. This will alleviate end weight and potential failure at stem union. T2 - Oak - Dismantle to near ground level. The oak is in poor condition after being suppressed by the sycamore and smothered in ivy . G3 - Self seeded Sycamore & Ash (with ash die back) - Dismantle to near ground level. These are low amenity value trees and insignificant in their surroundings and the removal will help the long term management of the bank.
