Hornsby Shire Council Tree Regulations
Hornsby Shire Council requires a permit for the removal or pruning of any tree that is 5 meters or taller, has a trunk diameter of 15 centimetres or more at 1.4 meters above ground, or forms part of a significant vegetation community. Certain tree species, such as Camphor Laurel and Privet, are exempt from these regulations. Additionally, trees posing immediate danger to people or property may be removed without prior approval, but evidence must be provided to the council afterwards.
