Apply to work on a council owned tree

Find out how to carry out works to a Council owned tree

We assess each request to prune a tree which is Council owned on its individual merits.

We do not have unlimited resources. Budget pressures mean that we are unable to carry out all works as quickly as we would like to.

In some cases, the person reporting the issue may wish to prune the tree at their own expense. We have a Permit to Work scheme where we grant permission to carry out works to trees owned by the Council.

Applications

  • the proposed works
