Customers can request the removal of a specific tree i.e. new development, driveway construction or relocation, change of tree species, etc. After an inspection of the site, the Council's arborist may approve or decline this request. A report is required for the request.
Do not transfer the call if a report has not been submitted. The arborist needs to inspect first and they will contact the customer.
If the request is approved, the customer will receive a letter and charges for the removal.
