Tree and woodland management policies and procedures

The Council will give general verbal advice over the phone or in some cases via email and where applicable will direct callers to sources of further relevant information, e.g. free on-line services, information leaflets or web link.  Site visits will only be made if based on the information provided it is deemed to result in a request that requires further action by the Council, e.g. remedial tree work, potential insurance claim etc.  Please refer to section regarding trees in Conservation Areas/ Trees Protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPO'S).
