If the tree officer sees that it won't have a TPO for long. Get it down soon and you can sell it this winter.

 

Rob, are you suggesting the TPO will be reviewed / revoked? If so, it's an interesting point (albeit I'm probably taking it off topic.)

 

I've been wondering how many LAs review the validity of existing TPOs. I may be pleasantly surprised but I wouldn't bet my mortgage on it! When I get a minute I think a FOI request to my LA is due.

With my local TO he will exempt a tree from a tpo if he feels it's necessary I.e. Unsafe trees, like the one in the original post. The TO here is very switched on and I have a good relationship with him so it makes matters easier.

 

Why would a tree officer refuse to exempt a tree from a tpo when an application would go through anyway?

Maybe it's a matter of interpretation?

 

It may well qualify for a 5 day exemption, but if you "take it down" the TPO may remain....

I cant see the tree being taken down any time soon as the owner is now after getting more quotes. The tree has also with stood the high winds of late so in there is no sense or urgency.
