Any one can protect a tree if they want,you can just contact the council and ask them to put a TPO on the tree.

Sorry Lee, but I checked this out. if you do a search for Tree development controls in NSW, it comes up with lots of different councils (Shires) and all have a different plan.

This one obviously is a bit more lenient -

Oh well, still a good idea, well done Wyong shire,can you remember the regs for Brisbane ED?

[Mr Ed]

Ehrm... When I was there, I was just a hired gun. I did'nt ask if a tree was protected, I just killed 'em.

depending on shire definetly. also depends on surrounding development. some places (melbourne hills) needs written consent from the council arborist to remove a tree(over a certain diameter) that is 3 metres or above from your house. while back in the green isle its 100 yards

In Auckland City any tree work that removes branches over 200mm circ needs written consent from council arborist. Consent is needed to remove native trees over either 3or 5m (cant remember which one) and exotic trees need consent if over 8m. It is up to tree owner to know the species and if it is native or not. Its more paperwork for the council but it does make the city look good. In some cases the council will demand a bond be paid on the council tree if major work (ie building) is to be done within the dripline and this is then repaid if no damage is done. If the tree is council then a supervising arborist is normally on site whilst work is carried out. I bet the builders hate it.........

It would/should also stop colleges churning out arb workers like a conveyer system.. .

You'll find out what I mean , when you finish college and try and find a job in this game..

I get the same and nearly all want to start in managment!!!!"running crews" being the phrase most used!Dream on

[telhol]

The problem is any one can do a course maybe you should need abc levels from school would stop the numpties applying.

 

I noticed that no shortage of workers or qualified surgeons and not enough jobs so to me it does make sense to get into it first then worry about tickets imo.
