Hi Bill,
Minimum £1000 per tree to ensure establishment in the landscape.

What ho,
I'm currently involved with a job where the LPA (who shall remain nameless
ATM) are requiring a commuted sum to be paid, in lieu of planting trees
within the site.
Without going into details they require 2 trees to be planted to replace any
trees lost within the site, which seems fair enough, or they'll permit the
payment of a commuted sum to fund tree planting elsewhere in the borough if
they can't get that number of trees planted within the site.
My question is what would the collective regard as a "reasonable" sum per
tree? Also do any other LPAs have such a policy?
Please be sensible in responding to this as I might write up the subject for
a small article to be published somewhere.
Thanks in advance.
Bill.
