Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by reason of its proximity to adjacent trees, has not been supported by sufficient arboricultural information to demonstrate that it could be undertaken without harm to the health, stability and longevity of those trees, or to identify appropriate mitigation and protection measures. In the absence of such information, the Local Planning Authority cannot be satisfied that the development would appropriately safeguard existing trees or the character and amenity of the area. The proposal is therefore contrary to Core Strategy Policy P10, saved Unitary Development Plan Policy GP5, the Householder Design Guide SPD, Leeds City Council's guidance on distances from development to trees, and the aims of the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
