Unless trees are deemed dangerous or diseased they will not be dealt with outside of SDCC's rolling schedule. This is much to the frustration of residents throughout the County, but it is deemed by the Council to be more efficient.
"Tree Maintenance will be carried out according to the Council's Tree Management Policy 2021-2026 ‘Living with Trees’. The focus of the Councils three year Tree Maintenance Programme is on entire roads or whole estates. In advance of commencing works within an estate or road, a full survey of all trees at the location is carried out to inform the programme and scheduling of tree maintenance. The tree surveys record data on tree species, age, maintenance required and photographic data."
The tree policy is here for your convenience:
