  • The photo above is minor works. according to our system other important works have been done, Another site visit will need to be done to find an accurate location. there are other trees along that road. If you report another issue please read bellow. The map marker provides an estimated location, but additional information in your report description can help us identify locations. House numbers or lamp column numbers are very useful for our officers and contractors to locate Council owned trees and will improve the speed and quality of our response.

    Thank you
