Communal Tree Maintenance

Trees in communal parts of our estates are maintained on a 2 yearly programmed basis, according to what work is necessary for the health of the trees and safety of the public (a summary is contained in the table below). Trees are inspected by the Council’s Arboriculturist and necessary works specified and provided to External Services to undertake the work. The work is delivered in-house by a team of 2 mobile Estate Officers trained to carry out the work – they are commonly referred to as the ‘Green Team’ as they carry out a range of other projects.

Customers are informed about programmed visits through our EnviroWatch Survey mailshots and on Attendance Sheets provided on block Notice Boards. Where other project work is involved, customers receive written notification of our proposals detailed n colour maps, and are invited to contribute to the final design. A summary of the Communal Tree Maintenance Programme is shown below with dates when blocks are inspected to specify necessary works. Resultant works normally take place within a month of inspection.
