Proposal
T1185 - Laurocerasus lusticanica (Portugal Laurel): Lift low canopy, pedestrian clearance - to 2.5 m over footpath. T1184 - Syringa vulgaris (Common Lilac): Fell coppice - due to secondary stem failure at 0.4 m exposing hollow in remaining stem. To prevent failure onto parked cars. Basal epicormic growth suggests coppice regeneration will establish well. T1157 - Cotoneaster sp. (Tree Cotoneaster): Reduce crown by specified extent - reducing the extension growth over the road edge by around 1 m to maintain hyways clearance.

What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Westminster 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.

T889 & T892 - Platanus x hispanica: Reduce crown by specified extent - At the request of GLM, in consideration of resident complaints and the cost of regular pruning work, and the crown imbalance from previous pruning, crown reduction has been recommended to the following specification. Reduce the crown height by 2.5 - 3 m and the lateral crown spread by 1 - 1.5 m to the southeast over the road, and the remaining crown spread by 2.5 - 3 m, to address the current crown imbalance and form a smaller crown framework that will accommodate regrowth within the previously agreed proportions overhanging the road, whilst allowing for the re-formation of a natural crown aesthetic. Final cuts should be made at suitable pruning points, leaving furnishing growth to minimise visual impact where possible.

T1 (Aesculus sp.) - laterally crown reduce by 1.0-1.5m as identified by the red lines shown on T1-SK1 and T1-SK2; and T2 (Pyrus calleryana) laterally crown reduce by 1.5m as identified by the red line shown on T2-SK1. Measured pruning extents to supplement the aforementioned sketches are shown on the 260675-TMA-XX-DR-AP-2300-P00 and 260675-TMA-XX-DR-AP-2400-P00 plans, which show the site in its existing and approved contexts respectively. The pruning to the aforementioned 2no. trees is required, in order to facilitate the installation of a scaffold frame around the existing building at the Site, which is required in order to facilitate the implementation of Full Planning Permission 25/01006/FULL ('the Permission'). In determining the Permission, no arboricultural information was submitted to facilitate its determination; and no conditions require the provision of tree-related information. However, the specified pruning is required to facilitate the implementation of the Permission, hence this Section 211 Notification. For the avoidance of doubt, according to the Delegated Report related to the Permission, the Arboricultural Officers were not a consultee. This Section 211 Notification is therefore submitted to regularise the required pruning to the affected 2no. trees in the only known manner that is feasible relative to the conditional elements of the Permission. The red line planning boundary is shown on all of the plans submitted to this Section 211 Notification; data related to both surveyed trees is also included in the submitted schedule (that uses the BS 5837:2012 methodology).
