Down load the forms and fill it in mate or call up the planning dept and ask the tree officer out for a meeting and discuss the tree.

if its conservation area you just need to give 6 weeks notification of your intention to remove the tree, if the LPA has an issue with that then they will either come back to you and discuss a half way answer thats ok for you, your client, and them or if they are anally retentive they will slap a TPO on it if they want to protect it... or they may have no objections

No you don’t, you have to use the LA's paperwork for a TPO but a "211" can be in any form as long as it makes clear which tree and your intentions.

its the same form down here for tpos and conservation areas you just tick the box saying its for tpo or conservation area.

I never do 2 copes for TPO's and generally just send a short email for CA notifiatioins.

For a TPO you MUST use the paperwork, however for a conservation area notification you can write it on the back of an envelope as long as it meets the requirements.

The requirements for a "211" are that they should clearly identify the tree, and any proposed works which boils down to a schedule of works and a map. As long as the notification is properly formatted they can’t refuse to accept it.
