I've been on both sides Mike and my attitude has always been that my first 
duty is to the trees not the TO or the client. It depends on you concept of 
integrity I suppose.

Gilbert

I'm not sure that that's particularly good advice.  It sounds to me as though 
Mark is under contract to the applicant and should therefore be advising him 
of the options available and the likely consequences.  If he takes your 
advice literally, it seems to me that he would be advising the LPA of his 
client's intentions.  If that were the case and I were his client, I would be 
straight after him for compensation for the loss of value in the land.

Mark - if it is worth a TPO get one on ASAP. There is no other protection and 
trust no-one!

Hi
I have just undertaken a 5837 survey for a client who is livid that the local 
tree officer wants to retain a B1 class tree which prevents a third house 
being built £500 000 less for the development etc.
Although we're still at the early stage of negotiations.

As yet the site does not have a TPO on it and in his agitation he talked of 
going and felling his own tree on his own land.

Sounded like Bravado - but I couln't gurantee it. As an application has been 
submitted the trees are a material consideration - I pointed out the 
antagonism felling the tree would cause with the council - but presumably if 
the tree is a material consideration there is also some legal comeback if it 
is destroyed in the abscence of a TPO. 

If somebody could firm up my knowlege on this I'd be grateful as it might 
help to stay his hand.

Regards

Mark Nankervis
Yours
Mark  Nankervis
