🌳 Tree Safety Update
Dry conditions and a lack of rainfall place significant stress on trees, increasing the risk of fallen limbs.
Public safety is Council’s priority. If you notice a tree or fallen branches that may pose a risk, please notify Council on 8842 6400.
Council staff will inspect the tree, assess the level of risk, clear fallen branches where required, and take the most appropriate action following assessment. In some cases, specialist contractors may be required to safely undertake tree works.
📄 For more information on how trees are assessed and managed is available in Council’s Tree Management Policy:
