   Decision expected by 29 October 2026, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   Torbay took a median of 61 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with Torbay for determination, against a statutory target of eight weeks. Over the last year Torbay decided amendment applications in a median of 59 days. More in our guide to how long planning decisions take.

An amendment application makes limited changes to a permission that already exists; anything beyond modest adjustment needs a fresh application. More in our guide to planning application types.

  Fell T6 Pine, 80% of the crown is dead, with very little live foliage remaining. The tree is in terminal decline and directly threatens both houses and gardens to the south, creating an unacceptable risk. Removal is required to restore a proportionate level of safety. Replacement planting: One replacement tree of the same species will be planted within the garden, providing long-term amenity at an appropriate scale. T5 Pine ? Remove only the lowest-order branches, as shown in the photographs. These are small-diameter, phototropic limbs below the main crown structure. All cuts will comply with BS 3998:2010, with the final cut diameter not exceeding one third of the parent branch or stem. This minor work maintains natural form and improves clearance and light without altering the crown. T1 Pine ? Remove only the lowest-order phototropic branches. These are small, low-value limbs whose removal is minor and does not affect crown structure. All cuts will follow BS 3998:2010, with the final cut diameter not exceeding one third of the parent branch or stem. This improves balance and light while preserving the crown.
