   Decision issued: Prior Approval Not Required

   Added to PlanIndex

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.

Prior approval applications arise where permitted development rights already grant the principle of the work, such as larger home extensions, changes of use to housing or agricultural buildings. The council may only consider the specific matters set out in the rules, for example transport, flooding or appearance, and in many classes the work may proceed if the council does not respond within the deadline, commonly 56 days.

  The mature Sycamore tree located within the rear garden has grown to a size where several branches are now overhanging and directly encroaching upon the roof of the property. There is increasing concern that continued growth and branch movement, particularly during periods of high winds or adverse weather, could result in damage to roof tiles, guttering, fascia's and other roof structures. In addition, ongoing contact between branches and the roof has the potential to cause abrasion and long-term deterioration of roofing materials, leading to avoidable maintenance costs and potential water ingress. Permission is therefore sought to undertake a sympathetic crown thin by 10% and reshaping of the tree to provide adequate clearance from the roof and prevent future damage to the property. The proposed works are intended solely to manage the tree's size and spread in relation to the building, whilst retaining its overall amenity value, health, appearance and contribution to the local environment. The crown thin would be carried out in accordance with good arboriculture practice by a suitably qualified tree surgeon, ensuring the long-term health and structural integrity of the tree are maintained. The requested works represent a proportionate and preventative measure to mitigate the increasing risk of property damage and to ensure the safe coexistence of the tree and the adjacent dwelling.
