Council is seeking to compile a register of significant trees on public land to assist in managing these into the future, in accordance with Council’s Management of Trees on Public Land Policy.

A tree may be significant because:

  • Of its age (it may be an early settler planting or represent pre-European settlement).
  • It may be commemorative (e.g. of an event, organisation or person).
  • Botanical rarity (e.g. be uncommon in this area).
  • As a landmark.
  • As a very fine example of its species.
  • As part of a remnant landscape (e.g. associated with a building no longer there).

At this stage, we are seeking nominations/suggestions for trees located on public land, such as:

  • Road verges.
  • Parks and reserves.
  • Recreation grounds.
  • Nature strips
  • Associated with Council buildings (e.g. halls).

At this stage we are not compiling a register of significant trees on private land, however if you would like to nominate a tree on your property, please do so, and we will hold that information for reference.
