Planning application documents: what to read first
Understand planning application documents, officer reports and decision notices. Use a reading checklist, document table and worked example to inspect a case.
Application overview
I have two large conifers in my back garden that are leaning down towards the garden shed and are causing damage to the guttering as they are very close. I would like to cut these two trees down as they are not in good condition and want to prevent future damage.
