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.

I also talked to you about cutting down the ash tree in the centre of three at the back of our house and which is inhibiting the grown of the other two. We had planning permission to do this previously and would like to get the work done at the same time as the conifers are being cropped back if possible. (previous application 21/01697/TPC)

PART 1 Species: Leylandii We would like to remove the branches from a row of 16 Leylandii that overhang the boundary between our property and our neighbours ('Opposite the Church', Woodman Lane). The trees were planted a number of years ago (presumably as a hedge) and have been unmaintained over the years leaving them in a straggly and untidy condition. When we moved to our property we were advised by a Winchester City Council tree inspector who visited the site that, due to their nature, we should treat the row as a hedge and we would not need planning permission to prune them back (REF: 16/02593/TPC). If we prune them back a little we will soon get back to wood that will not produce new growth and will leave unsightly branches without foliage. Therefore we propose to prune them back close to the trucks, which are on the boundary itself. This will allow new vegetation to grow up underneath and will give us the option to plant more suitable trees and plants our side of the boundary. We are currently unable to fully utilise this area of our garden due to the overhanging branches and we would prefer to be able to encourage the growth of new vegetation in this area which is impossible at the moment. The pruned areas will only be visible to us, no other neighbours will be affected and we are willing to live with the bare trunks until other vegetation and trees can be planted. There are already three holly trees that are struggling to grow due to the lack of light from the overhanging branches in the specified area that we would like to encourage if possible. Furthermore, the branches that overhang our property create a very dark and damp environment where moss and algae grow. This side of our property includes a run of steps, giving access from the front of our house to the back garden, and they are often slippery and unsafe due to debris from the trees and the lack of light and air circulation PART 2 Species: Horse Chestnut We would like to reduce the size of the...

Tall Trees Peach Hill Lane Crawley Winchester Hampshire SO21 2PZ
T6 - Yew tree Height 18m to reduce to no less than 15m, radial spread 11m to reduce to no less than 8m. Arboricultural Justification: To undertake a sympathetic crown reduction in accordance with BS3998:2010 to maintain the tree at a sustainable size relative to its growing environment and reducxe end-weight thoughout the crown. The works will lessen mechanical loading on extnded limbs, improve the tree's long-term structural integrity, and reduce the liklihood of branch failure during adverse weather conditions. The propsoed reduction will retain the tree's natural form and amenity value whilst establishing an appropriate management cycle for this mature specimen. T7 - Sycamore to take back to source the first 4no branches at 35mm stem diameter Arboricultural Justification: To remove four small lower branches by pruning bak to source. The works are minor in nature and intended to improve canopy structure and provide appropriate clearance beneath the crown. The proposed pruning involves the removal of small diameter branches only and will not adversely affect the health or stability of the tree. (Amended)

Currawong George Eyston Drive Winchester Hampshire SO22 4PE
T1-T5 Beech - All 5 trees have extensive squirrel damage in upper limbs and branches. These are now posing a safety hazard to the owners & neighbours. Suggestion is to shorten damaged limbs and branches as appropriate to their lengths and amount of damage to reduce the risk of failure. Estimated reduction is maximum 3m but less if safe to do so & leaving decent growth points. 1 limb recently broke & fell into owners garden & the climbing inspection was undertaken & the damage was highlighted.
