tree reports for development projects
Types of reports
Preliminary Vegetation Assessment
-
A preliminary vegetation assessment is a comprehensive survey of all trees on a site.
-
These reports are used in the earliest stages of development planning, prior to the development application or detailed design.
-
This way designers can make informed decisions in relation to the trees on the development site.
-
A vegetation assessment will identify and locate all trees on site, plus provide critical tree data regarding Tree Protection Zones and recommended trees to retain.
-
This will ensure your architects can make the most of available space on site when they design your plans.
Arboricultural Impact Assessment
-
If you are proposing to build on a site that has trees nearby (even next door), you will require a Development Impact Assessment report.
-
This tree report considers the potential impacts or conflicts between trees on site and your proposed construction plans.
-
It is also critical to consider council planning laws or overlays and the Australian Standard 4970-2009: Protection of Trees on Development Sites.
-
We will provide impact mitigation advice where relevant and assist in progressing your project.
Tree Protection Management Plan
-
A Tree Protection Management Plan is often required as part of a council planning permit for development sites.
-
This tree report provides detailed, step-by-step plans for the implementation of Tree Protection measures from the pre-demolition stage, through construction, to project completion.
Project Arborist Supervision
-
We can certify all stages of a Tree Protection Management Plan, or sign off on Tree Protection fencing once it has been correctly installed on your site.
-
Our qualified arborists are also available to supervise Non-Destructive Digging if your project requires excavation near trees and/or provide Root Mapping reports.
