Have your say on the future of local councils in Surrey

Take part in a landmark Government consultation on proposals to replace Surrey's current councils with up to three larger authorities. We support a three unitary approach - Find out more and read our consultation question guide.

Join us for a special online engagement session hosted by the Leaders of Guildford and Waverley Borough Councils on Thursday 3 July from 7pm to 8pm via Microsoft Teams. We'll explain what Local Government Reorganisation is, outline the different options being considered, and show you how to get involved. Sign up for the session (opens new window).

Council owned trees

Council owned trees

We carry out regular tree risk management inspections on trees at:

  • parks
  • countryside sites
  • car parks
  • cemeteries
  • all council housing land

We do this to make sure that the risk of harm from our trees is as low as reasonably practicable.

After a tree inspection, any remedial work will be carried out in good time. We will group less urgent works together. These works will be carried out when we next arrange a large-scale contract. Contracts are dependant on time of year (e.g avoiding bird nesting season), our workload and available budget.
