Difficult one - good point about the non-payers, Dominic. It's not something
I would ever want to do, but I'm aware that the question is inevitably asked.
How about this off the top of my head - basic service is free and never comes
before 7 weeks and 6 days, and you don't necessarily get to meet the TO on
site; but for a guaranteed quicker response and site meeting with a nice
complementary copy of the TPO/s if required, there's a charge of £25? Or
maybe some kind of sliding scale for bigger applications, like DC planning.

Subject: Tree Work Applications free or not
Please read the Council's email disclaimer notification which is located at
the end of the email message.
In our current local authority financial climate I have been asked to find
out the implications for charging an administration fee for tree work
applications?
I seem to remember an old thread on this before but can anyone point me in
the right direction or has anyone had any experience in attempting this?
