If you're doing developments, a preliminary tree survey for the site gives the developers and architects a good idea of any design constraints and challenges the trees have to your project. This report can save you time and money in the long run and prevent wasted time preparing architectural designs that may not be suitable due to trees that need to be protected. The retention value of any trees on site needs careful consideration and the impact the new development will have on their health and longevity.
Green Space Arbor evaluates each tree on site to determine its retention values. The report will outline the likelihood of the tree's removal to accommodate the development or that they will need to be retained and protected according to AS-4970-2009 (Protection of Trees on Development Sites).
The final decision on the retention or removal of certain trees is always down to the local council. However, our AQF Level 5 certified arborists can give a good indication as to the likelihood of various outcomes.
