You can report a tree or tree branch that is obstructing the road, footpath or is in danger of falling or causing damage.

What type of tree issues can you report?
  • Fallen trees or branches on nature strips, footpaths, paths and roads
  • Low obstructing branches onto public land
  • Council trees that show signs of deadwood/dieback and/or of poor habit & form that need maintenance

We won’t prune or remove a healthy tree due to leaf, flower or fruit drop. This is considered a natural process, and the benefits that trees provide outweigh the minor inconvenience of regular property maintenance.
