Repollarding with conservation area

[roseyweb]

Can trees be repollarded with out conservation area notification if the growth is below a certain size? Such as regually pollarded limes.

 

Thanks

I would say not, best pop a notice in.

You may be able to get ongoing consent to maintain the pollard without need to give notice in the further.

Yes, give notice that you want to repollard and repeat on whatever cycle you think best.

It's the actual tree stem measured at 1.5m above ground level that counts not the pollard regrowth stems.

 

I can't see a "rolling permission," in effect, being granted in a CA. Think you're gonna have to go through the same process every 5 years, or whatever cycle you work on.

 

Should hopefully be a straight forward process.

 

Good luck,

Paul

Also any, deemed consent, would only be valid for 2 years

Also any deemed consent would only be valid for 2 years, ie it would expire before you wanted to work the tree again

In the interest of reducing the number of notices/apps;

 

What about section 211 notices for more than one operation?

Only one section 211 notice is needed to carry out a number of different operations on the same tree or to carry out work on a number of trees.

 

To avoid the need for repeated notices over a relatively short period of time, one notice may, where appropriate, be submitted for repeated operations, phased works or programmes of work.

Hi Adam,

 

Sorry, I'm not sure if you're asking (me) a question here or making a statement

 

Whilst it makes perfect sense, and cuts down on bureaucracy for both the applicant / contractor and the LPA, I'm just not sure if there's the same opportunity with a Sect. 211 Notice as there is a TPO consent which can be duly conditioned which are then enforceable if anything outside of the scope of the consent occurs.

 

...or maybe I'm just over-complicating it as is often my way

 

Cheers,

Paul
