Form: Tree replacement notice appeal form
Summary
The Planning Inspectorate has published a tree replacement notice appeal form for landowners who oppose a council-issued notice. The guidance stresses that appeals must be received before the notice takes effect, with no power for the Inspectorate to extend the deadline, and notes updates to contact details and GDPR-related wording.
Why it matters
Surveyors advising landowners, buyers or sellers with affected trees need to be aware of the strict appeal timetable and the procedural route. It is also relevant where tree replacement notices may affect site value, development potential or local authority compliance requirements.
