Tree Preservation Orders and the Development process

When planning a development or changes to an existing building, any surrounding trees must be factored into the plans and one factor which needs to be considered is the Tree Preservation Order (TPO). These provide legal protection for trees and so processes must be properly followed in order to ensure that no laws are breached.

To make this legal consideration easier for you to understand, our team of leading tree experts have compiled an introductory guide that explains more about what the TPO is for and how to ensure you have covered them thoroughly when submitting plans for any development.
