Federal Tree Conditions & Council Considerations
Federal forms part of Byron Shire, an area known for its environmentally sensitive landscapes and biodiversity protections. Tree removal and pruning are regulated through Council planning controls, including vegetation management provisions under the Development Control Plan.
In many situations, a Tree Removal Permit is required before removing or significantly pruning native vegetation. However, specific exemptions may apply in certain circumstances, such as:
Vegetation that is dead or poses an unacceptable risk to life or property
Some vegetation located within close proximity to an approved dwelling
Listed non-native or invasive species
Works carried out under approved vegetation or biodiversity management plans
Supporting documentation such as an arborist report, may be required even where exemptions apply.
Because requirements vary depending on vegetation type, location and environmental overlays, approval obligations should always be confirmed before undertaking tree work.
If you are unsure whether council approval or exemptions apply to your Federal property, contact Byron Shire Council directly for confirmation.
