Planning an Arborist Report in Botany
These checks help match your enquiry to the right report, plan, or assessment before inspection.
Confirm the report pathway
Council and property context
Botany is assessed against Bayside Council requirements where relevant, along with the site address, tree location, and reason for the report.
Application or project trigger
Share any council request, DA condition, builder request, strata instruction, safety concern, or neighbour issue that explains why the report is needed.
Official source check
Use the council links on this page to check the current permit, exemption, and development application pathway before finalising instructions.
Match the service to the outcome
Structure and diagnostic scope
Council tree reports for private-tree application evidence. Structure testing is considered only where the visual assessment suggests internal decay, defects, or diagnostic evidence may affect the report recommendation.
Council application support
A council tree report is usually the clearest fit when evidence is needed for pruning, removal, or tree works on private land.
Development or construction support
A tree impact assessment or tree protection plan is better suited when works may affect retained trees, neighbouring trees, TPZs, or SRZs.
Condition, risk, or management support
Risk assessments, structure testing, and management plans can support safety decisions, diagnostic questions, strata planning, and staged maintenance.
Prepare useful attachments
Photos and site notes
Clear photos, the number of trees, access notes, and the location of each tree help confirm whether the scope is straightforward or complex.
Plans or correspondence
Upload survey plans, architectural drawings, council letters, DA conditions, or strata correspondence if they relate to the tree assessment.
Timing constraints
Mention any council, builder, strata, or settlement deadline so inspection and report timing can be scoped realistically.

Verified 21 May 2026
Bayside Council's official tree guidance identifies when private-land tree work needs a permit, development consent, or documented exemption before pruning or removal.
Report context
- Bayside says a permit is required before pruning or removing a private tree unless an exemption applies.
- An AQF Level 5 arborist or engineering report is required as evidence for removing a dying, dead, or dangerous tree or when applying to remove 10 or more trees.
- Development applications may not need separate tree approval; Council advises applicants to clarify before lodging.
Verified council checks
- A permit is not required only where the tree is no higher than 3m and no more than 300mm wide at 1.4m above ground, is a fruit tree, or is listed as exempt.
- Bayside says a permit is required before pruning or removing a private tree unless an exemption applies.
- Fruit trees and Bayside DCP Appendix 3 exempt species are listed exemption categories.
