  1. Very often the insurance company will waive any recourse on the risk of heave in order to get the tree felled.
  2. Thanks Mark, I suspected that money could change hands given that there are no powers to force tree owners to allow pruning. I just get the feeling that the companies involved don't see why they should compensate an LA. There may be a good income opportunity for someone with strategically placed hybrid poplars..... C
  3. Thanks for your reply. Babcock are handling it on behalf of Ericsson. However, the person responsible for the tree does not want to prune it without having some money to put back into the site to mitigate it's loss. As far as my interpretation of the code goes, they cannot force pruning.
  4. Hello, does anyone have any experience of cases where a landowner has secured a financial sum to mitigate the topping of a tree where it obstructs a wireless signal? I understand that the recently reviewed Communications Code: Electronic Communications Code - Law Commission did not favour a change in terms of giving providers the ability to require the pruning of vegetation for a wireless signal that was obstructed, whether this will translate to the draft bill we shall see. The trees in question are very visible and will be decapitated to the point of having very little landscape value. Thanks, C
