    Received 30 Sept 2004
  13. Approved2024/TPO/0084/LCC

    A mature horse chestnut tree, T1, is causing significant shade in a small suburban garden. The tree's large size and dense canopy make it difficult to enjoy the garden, and its proximity to other mature protected trees and a protected oak tree further exacerbate the situation. The tree's low amenity value and potential impact on the property's salability have led to attempts to sell the house. The applicant proposes to fell the tree, which has been recommended by Landscape Officer Mr. Andrew Shaw. If unsuccessful, they plan to reduce the chestnut canopy by 5m and thin the crown by 50%. The tree's presence in the garden is causing distress and potential damage to the property.

What these statistics cover

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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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