Tree Preservation Orders

TPO

Abstract

Where a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) is made under Section 198 of the Town and County Planning Act 1990, the tree or group of trees are identified on a location plan. Copies of the order are served on the owners of land upon which the trees are growing, and on the owner occupiers of affected and joining properties. Once an order has been made, the consent of the council is required before a tree may be pruned or felled. In certain circumstances, it may be agreed that pruning or removal may be permitted in order to accommodate development, but the TPO enables the council to control these actions and to obtain new planting to replace trees which are removed. You can download a form to get approval to carry out pruning or felling work to trees protected by a TPO. There is no fee involved. If a tree is cut down, uprooted or wilfully destroyed or is deliberately damaged, or pruned in a manner likely to destroy it, in contravention of a TPO, the responsible person may be prosecuted and liable to pay a substantial fine. Upon accessing this licensed data you will be deemed to have accepted the terms of the Public Sector End User Licence - INSPIRE.
