COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL
MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE
Thursday, September 15, 2016
HEADED ITEM NO. 3
In line with the Council's Tree Management Policy 2015-2020 "Living With Trees", the focus of the 2016 Tree Maintenance Programme is on entire roads or whole estates. This represents a move away from reactive pruning of individual trees on a one off basis to a planned maintenance programme. The objective of this approach will increase the efficiency and productivity of the tree maintenance crews and advance a proactive programme of cyclical pruning targeting priority locations where intervention is most needed and will yield greatest community benefit.
In advance of works being carried out within an estate or road, a full survey of all trees at the location is carried out to inform the programme and scheduling of tree pruning and removal works for all trees in the estate that are identified as requiring tree maintenance.
In addition to the planned whole estate and road programme, works considered necessary arising from requested inspections of trees are being noted on an ongoing basis and prioritised accordingly as part of this or future Tree Maintenance Programmes.
The following is an update on progress of the 2016 Tree Maintenance Programme which was presented at the March 2016 meeting of this Area Committee. Following completion of works outstanding from the 2015 Tree Maintenance Programme during the period Jan-March 2016, work on this programme commenced in April 2016.
