Planning application

Veterinary Surgery 1 - 1A Leachfield Industrial Estate Green Lane West Garstang Preston Lancashire PR3 1PR

Awaiting decision Wyre 26/00631/TPO Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

To Remove one (multi stemmed) Ash tree bordering Green Lane West at Lanes Vets. The Practice has had multiple complaints of damage to customers vehicle form falling debris. This is from both dead wood and dead ivy that was growing (now severed) within the canopy. The tree is blocking a substantial amount of light within several consultation rooms making them very dark. I propose it is removed and possibly replaced with a verity such as Rowan or Whitebeam but set a little further back from the road and car park.

What happens while it is decided

The process from here

This application is with Wyre 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.
