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.

    Rear garden - T1 Eucalyptus - fell. This is a non native fast growing tree which requires a lot of routine maintenance to maintain a balanced relationship between the tree and home owner. Over the last decade the tree has been reduced a couple of times. This has been done because the tree over shadows the garden and also the tree has a low union and the reduction work has reduced the stress on this union. The tree is of poor amenity value and cannot be viewed from the road. T2 Lawson Cypress - reduce in height by 2.5m to the previous pruning points. This will leave a finished tree height of 8m from ground level. All pruning cuts will be made to suitable secondary growth points. Routine maintenance to maintain a more compact height for its location. G1 Group of trees comprising of approx. 2X Hazel, 1X Holly, 1X Conifer, 1X Ash and Laurels, 1X Ash, Hazel and Laurel - prune back the drive side lateral profile to the edge of the drive in line with the granite setts on the nearest edge of the drive. Routine maintenance to maintain a more compact spread for its location. And to stop the encroachment onto the drive. G2 X Purple Plum and Cherry - raise the canopies to 2.6m from ground level over the footpath and drive. Low hanging branches over the drive footpath under statutory heights. (Works subject to TPO 626/0075/1966).
