  13. Final Decision2025/3318

    EL:186 - Oak Tree - Crown Reduction and Light Improvement. The oak tree located within a heavily shaded rear garden adjacent to a woodland is now overhanging a neighbouring garden, contributing to significant shading and loss of natural light to both the client's and neighbouring properties. To improve light and manage future growth, the tree will be sympathetically crown reduced by approximately 1.5 metres across the upper and lateral canopy, with an additional 10% crown thin to allow increased light while retaining the tree's natural form, structural integrity, and overall vitality.

  14. Final Decision2026/1836

    Tree Preservation Order EL:18/07 - T1 - Horse chestnut - Proposed Works: Crown lift over the roadside only to provide a minimum clearance of 5.2 metres above ground level. All pruning shall be limited to secondary branches where practicable and carried out in accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations, with a maximum pruning wound diameter of 50mm. Reason for Proposed Works: Following a tree survey, it was identified that the crown over the carriageway has been subject to contact from larger vehicles in the past. The proposed crown lift will provide appropriate clearance for high-sided vehicles, reducing the likelihood of future vehicle strikes and preventing unnecessary damage to the tree, whilst retaining its long-term health and amenity value.

What these statistics cover

These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for Elmbridge Borough 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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
