Tree Rules and Regulations of Melbourne

They have numerous importance which includes maintaining a healthy environment, controlling air pollution and keeping a region cool.

Melbourne city has authority over all trees in the town except those on private property unless the planning scheme accords them protection.

These orders inhibit one from looping, ringbarking, malicious destruction or cutting down of trees that are protected.

To do the above mention activities on trees which are specified under tree preservation orders, one must have the consent from the local council.

A person who breaches the rules is punished through heavy fines.

It is, therefore, always wise to consult with the local council to determine whether Tree Preservation Orders protect a tree before carrying any action that can be termed as tree destruction even though the tree could be on your property or you are on private property order.
