What a grant of permission means
The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
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.

12 Mardley Hill Welwyn AL6 0TN
TPO 24 T2 - 1 x Oak to remove in sections to ground level. Tree is suppressed by neighbouring tree leaving a high canopy, blocking lights to neighbouring gardens as part of a larger group **a reduction doesnt seem suitable due to the existing canopy shape. Reducing the tree significantly will create a denser thicker poorly attached growth. Client happy to replant T3 - 1 x Beech tree to reduce overhanging lateral branches by approximately 2m. Reduce lateral overhang to no 16 as tree is too close to boundary and excessive overhang is leaving bird poo on kids play equipment
