IC Trees is correct.

 

No he's not.

 

In a conservation area the council have the right to put a TPO on any tree, you must inform them of your intentions and if they don't want you to do it they MUST put a TPO on.

[Big 'Ammer]

As I understand it,

 

in a C/A you are not 'applying' for permission.

 

You are giving notification of your intention to carry out works.

 

The LA puts a TPO on to stop the works going ahead if they don't like it, or there are objections.

[Big 'Ammer]

Beat me to it Dave.

No he's not.

So i am right then! i didnt say they dont have to put a TPO on it did i. i said that you have to put an app in for work in a con area and if they dont respond within 6 weeks you can go ahead

 

The council has the right to put a TPO on any tree they dont have to be in a con area.

Big Ammer and Sky huck are right. Its important to undersatnd that in a CA you are NOT ASKING FOR PERMISSION, rather you are notifying them of your intent. They can put a TPO on to prevent you pruning or do nothing. After 6 weeks you can carry on.

 

I had a LA threaten to prosecute me this year for crown raising after 6 weeks notice period. They wanted photos and a report with the application. They didn't seem to understand their own procedures.

If they refuse your app in a con area they dont have to put a tpo on it , its still protected as its in a con area.

 

They cannot "refuse your application" as your not applying, your notifying.

 

So i am right then! i didnt say they dont have to put a TPO on it did i.

 

Yes you did!! See above

Its still protected though TPO or not

 

You can use what ever words you want for refusal etc, yes i know your giving notice of intended works (am doing a con area job this week) but they can still stop you refusal or TPO its not relevant an NO is a NO simple.

If you have a record of your notification 6 weeks ago and there is no TPO then you can do what you like. THEY CAN NOT REFUSE!
