Report a tree issue

We can prune trees in parks or naturestrips if they are:

• overhanging private property
• blocking a footpath, sign or streetlight
• close to power lines

You can ask for a tree to be planted on your street, at a Council facility or in a park. An arborist will assess the site to make sure it's suitable.

If your request is approved by the end of January, we can usually include the tree in our next planting schedule, which is between May and September.

The type of tree we plant depends on the local streetscape or biodiversity.

We can only remove a tree if it's on Council land. See Remove, prune or carry out works near a tree to find out more about removing a tree on private property.

Happy, healthy trees benefit our community and environment. We can only remove a tree if it's dangerous, dying or dead.

We can assess root problems caused by trees on Council land, not trees on private property. See Neighbouring trees for more information about roots from trees on private property.

You can remove a tree stump that's on your property. We can only remove tree stumps from Council land.

We can only look after the health of trees on Council land. Find an arborist to help treat your tree for pests or diseases.

After you submit this form, we'll store your information in our customer database so that we can carry out and respond to your requests and provide you with information and services that are relevant to you. See our Privacy Statement to find out more.
