What happens while it is decided

The process from here

This application is with Wandsworth 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.

About trees applications

How this application type works

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

    T1 Conifer: Fell to ground level / Section dismantle Justification: The conifer has significantly outgrown its location at the rear of the garden and has become unsuitable for the available space. Due to its size, density and proximity to the boundary, it is causing excessive shading, dominance and encroachment, and can no longer be managed satisfactorily through pruning without significantly compromising its form. Felling is therefore proposed as the most appropriate long-term management solution. The adjoining neighbour has been consulted and is in agreement with the proposed removal.
