Application received
The council checks the application is complete and gives it a reference number.
Consultation
The council tells neighbours and others, usually with a site notice or letters. Anyone can comment, usually within 21 days.
Decision
Most applications are decided by the council's planning officers. Larger or disputed ones go to the planning committee, where councillors decide in public.
After the decision
If permission is refused, the applicant can appeal to Planning and Environment Decisions Wales. Other people can't appeal, but can comment on an appeal.
Only planning matters count in a decision: things like the look of a building, traffic, noise, overlooking, loss of light, and the council's local development plan. A fall in the value of a neighbouring home doesn't count, nor does who the applicant is.

Betula Pendula: Thirty percent reduction of crown volume. Salix Alba: Tree has clearly had several pruning works in the past and resembles a pollard in its growth form, although on some limbs the knuckles are not very distinct. Proposed works are to in effect re-pollard the recent years' regrowth to previous pruning points, thereby substantially reducing crown volume but avoiding large wounds of greater than 10cm diameter.

The 180 acre landholding at Ty Mawr lies on the watershed between the Rivers Usk and Wye. We hope to add ponds and leaky dams to the land we manage, both to benefit biodiversity and to slow down flows into tributaries of those rivers: the Trothy and the Pontyrhydan Brook. The Ty Mawr fields are a mix of pasture and arable with very little ecological value. The pond proposals at Ty Mawr are designed to compliment those recently constructed on the adjacent Old Lands holding, which flow entirely into the Trothy, as well as establishing initial headwater hydrological control on part of the Pontyrhydan Brook. Ty Mawr is a Demonstration Farm for best practice regenerative farming, including Wildfarmed cereals and nutrient and livestock management with a strong focus on soil health. Ty Mawr holds knowledge exchange workshops for farmers, agronomists and other stakeholders and is therefore an excellent choice for demonstrating how Natural Flood Management can sit alongside arable management. There 7 small ponds, scrapes and leaky dams designed in conjunction with MCC.
