As such, please provide an amended application form in regard to the section: What are you Applying for? and email this back to Planning Control. Please also ensure your tree survey provides a full and clear specification of the works to be carried out. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to make contact.
- The above tree work, to which this permission relates, must be completed no later than the expiration of two years beginning with the date of this decision notice. Reason: The Local Planning Authority would wish to review the decision and the proposal after two years from the date of this consent so that it may take into account the growth pattern and condition of the tree(s) at that time.
- All works shall be carried out to conform to British Standard 3998:2010, Recommendations for Tree Works. Reason: In the interests of good arboricultural practice and the visual amenity of the tree(s), in accordance with the Peterborough Tree and Woodland Strategy 2018-2028.
