Commission reviews trees for nuisance
An external Tree Advisory Committee provides advice to the municipality on trees when nuisances occur. This includes excessive nuisance due to shade and light limitation. The independent committee consists of a tree expert, a landscape architect, an environmental manager and a secretary from the municipality.
This committee provides tailored advice. The committee has established standards for nuisance caused by shade and light in homes. The commission's working method is laid down in the current tree policy. In the new tree policy, the commission is allowed to deviate from the tree policy in its advice to the board in case of multiple problems.
You can report tree nuisance through the BuitenBeter app and the contact form (main category Green, subcategory Trees). For shade and light restrictions, an internal committee decides whether to forward the request to the external Tree Advisory Committee.
