Planning application
2 Greenfield Road Scarisbrick Southport Lancashire PR8 5LX
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
To fell 4 pines as per attached report. This application supersedes PP-10066469 as this was locked for editing so please withdraw. The reason for the superseded app is that the client is insistent that reference is drawn regarding long term structural integrity. Replanting of species to be confirmed.

The process from here
This application is with West Lancashire 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.

Originally requested a few week ago to fell one pine and deadwood remaining pines. This was authorised. On commencement of works it was discovered that a further two pines were actually dead. This was hard to observe from ground level and it?s only observed once the climbers were in the neighbouring trees Dead trees are denoted in red in the sketch and associated pics
