Permission is required from council to remove or prune any palm tree, tree fern or cycad, any tree equal to or above 6m in height, 4m in canopy or with a trunk circumference of 1m or greater, unless covered by the Noxious Weed Act 1993. No permission is required for removing a tree within 2m of a dwelling.
