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 full applications applications
How this application type works
A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.

56 Guinea Hall Lane Banks Southport Lancashire PR9 8BT
The area of concern is a woodland area on the opposite side of Guinea Hall Lane to number 56 etc as per marked out on the sketch plan. There are a total of 3 Beech trees which have limbs overhanging the road. This has been picked up on a recent H+S report of the site as a concern and needs attention. I am proposing that only the limbs highlighted on the attached pictures supplied are cut back approx. 4 metres back to the trunk to alleviate any hazard. The works will involve traffic management due to the position of the road and all debris generated will be removed from site.
