Planning Activity
- Pending26/02449/PACOUApplication to determine if prior approval is required for a proposed: Change of use at Elizabeth House, Newbury, from Class E(g)(i) (Offices) to Class C3 (Dwellinghouses) providing 12 apartments. This application is submitted on the basis that the proposed change of use is permitted by Class MA of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015.
- Pending26/02443/TPWT1 Acacia: crown reduce the canopy by 30%. Leaving the tree at a height of roughly 10 metres and a crown radius of roughly 3 metres. Reason: this tree recently had a large limb in the upper canopy fail. It was hanging on by a thread over the public footpath. This has raised concern with the owners for potential future failings of limbs. My advice to reduce the entire canopy would give a few years at least of no worry of this happening again.
