my view is that only that within the footprint is exempt..anything else is
purely development facilitation pruning...but all should be written into an
arb. method statement that will be part of the planning consent...that way
you can still ensure good pruning standards whilst keeping the profile and
importance of the trees at a raised level. Shouldn't need to allow pruning
for cranes or plant if the tree constraints plan and method statements are
adequate for the site.

Subject: protected trees on development sites
Dear all
To what extent do TO's allow work to be carried out to
protected trees on development site where pruning/ removal is
required to fulfill planning permission? The blue book
states that planning permission overides consent, however,
how do you define the amount of work that would be exempt
from the normal TPO/CA requirements:
i.e: pruning exempt where it would be within the footprint
of the building, or allow pruning to clear scaffolding?
Would you allow pruning to clear cranes and plant on site, or
ask for normal consent to be acheived? Assume that all work
would be carried out to BS3998:89 and carried out to a tight spec etc.
As an ex TO and now consultant, I am interested in the
range of interpretations out there.
Hope you all had a fab Christmas and happy new year.

So that's all right then.
I'm lost for words but I expect plenty of others on here
won't be. Looks
like a good thread to start the new year with.
Happy 2006 everyone
