Arboricultural Impact Assessment
Arboricultural Impact Assessment (AIA) produced by Consultancy department for development proposals
In August 2010 Devon Tree Services Consultancy department produced an Arboricultural Impact Assessment (AIA) for development proposals for 49 residential units on a one hectare site on behalf of Millwood Homes (Devon) Ltd, which contained numerous important trees, particularly old Oak trees.
From the AIA we produced a bespoke Arboricultural Method Statement for the installation of a non excavation porous surfaced car parking bay close to some of the Oaks, and a Tree Protection Plan (TPP) to enable construction in the vicinity of trees throughout the site.
As a result it was demonstrated to the Local Planning Authority that the trees were not at risk due to the proposals, and Millwood Homes were awarded planning consent for the development.
