Description

SDNPA wishes to secure specialist arboricultural advice on planning applications, including minerals and waste, tree notifications in Conservation Areas, hedgerow applications, enforcement matters, and TPO applications. This will normally be required within the South Downs National Park Authority parts of Arun, Adur & Worthing, Brighton & Hove, Horsham, Lewes, Mid-Sussex and Wealden Councils as well as, occasionally, (approximately 7 applications per year) more complex applications across the Hampshire and Chichester District areas of the National Park.
