Street Trees in Glen Court, Glen Waverley
The Street Tree Strategy aims to enhance and preserve Monash’s street tree canopy to ensure it continues to be a source of neighbourhood and city pride. We hope to create engaging and inviting green spaces, encouraging walking, cycling and street activity and delivering tangible benefits to local communities.
Our focus is on preserving trees that are healthy and creating additional planting in local parks and reserves to boost greenery.
We will only be removing and replacing those trees that are dead, dying (with a useful life expectancy of less than two years) or dangerous (they pose a risk to the community in the short term).
Street Tree Assessments
Council’s arborist has completed individual tree assessments based on the above criteria and in Glen Court, Glen Waverley we are proposing to remove two trees and will be planting a total of 10 trees which includes an additional eight trees in vacant locations.
