About telecoms applications
How this application type works
Telecommunications applications cover masts, antennas and cabinets, most of which come forward as prior approval cases under permitted development rules. The council typically has 56 days to consider siting and appearance only. The need for the network itself is treated as established, so objections carry most weight where they address visual impact or siting.

Bayleaf Court Stable Close Burghfield Common Reading
T1 - Oak: Positioned along the West boundary fence line, to the right-hand side of the building. Branches are encroaching and touching the brickwork, roof and ariels, thus posing significant damage to both the tree and the building. RSL therefore recommends that some formative pruning be carried out to clear the lower branches away from the building to prevent ongoing future issues. We are proposing that an approximate 2m safe gap be created between the building and vegetation by removing a total of 7x tertiary branches, all to be cut back to unions removing 2m from the tips to create a 2m gap between the tree and the building. Plus removal of new growth, back to previous cut points.
