  13. Application ApprovedTP/24/00356/X

    G4- 3 x Holm Oak Trees: fell all 3 to ground level to give more light to the property and garden area. These trees are unbalanced growing towards the building fighting for light. T5- Monterey Pine: remove 1 low branch as indicated on the photo as it's growing very close to the building and to give more light to the flats. Our aim is to gain as much light to the front garden so my clients are able to plant some nicer trees and have some flower beds because at the moment, it is surrounded by mainly Holm Oaks which drop so many leaves so the ground is just barren and very dark.

What these statistics cover

These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council, across all dates currently available. They are a partial dataset, rather than an authority-wide performance measure. The date range does not establish continuous historical coverage.

The approval percentage is approved records divided by approved plus refused records. Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded. No percentage is shown until there is an approved or refused record.
