Please note that this current round has limited funding, and we’re focusing on trees for this second round of grants. Application forms will be open from 13 January 2025 though to 24 January 2025 and you can apply online.
To be eligible you need to have a regulated or significant tree on your property. Regulated trees are 1 - 2metres in circumference when measured one metre off the ground, and Significant trees are those that are 2 metres or more in circumference.
You will need to upload two detailed quotes for maintenance pruning. This includes providing photos of the tree showing the areas of the tree to be pruned.
It is anticipated that Grant Applications will go up to a Council Meeting for approval in either February or March 2025. Work cannot be applied for retrospectively, and once approved by Council you will need to complete any works by 30 June 2025
Subject to budget approval, the normal full round of Conservation Grant funding for both trees and heritage buildings is anticipated to reopen around July 2025.
