BS5837:2012 Trees and Development

​Trees are a material consideration for the planning authority when assessing development proposals and if they are present on your site then you will most likely be required to submit an arboricultural report that complies with British Standard 5837:2012, "Trees in relation to design, demolition and construction – Recommendations".
The amount of information required within the report will be at the discretion of the planning authority, depending on the scale of the development and the sensitivity of the site. As a minimum it will supply enough detail for an informed assessment to be made of the proposal's impact on neighbouring trees and will enable the planning authority to ensure a satisfactory relationship between trees and development is reached.
