Trees in a dangerous condition
You can report a tree to us that you feel is an immediate hazard to life or property, such as:
- Fallen trees
- Newly leaning trees
- Dead or diseased trees (please describe the suspected disease)
- Broken branches about to fall
- New movement at the base of a tree
- Vandalised trees (pulled out or burnt)
If instead the tree does not pose an immediate hazard, you can request works to council-owned trees to us.
