Anyone willfully damaging these can be prosecuted. </p><p> The Authority has its own professional tree maintenance team who carries out all appropriate tree care and maintenance to trees owned by the council. </p><p> If you have any queries or would like advice about tree care and maintenance, please use the contact details above. </p><h2>Some advice for private tree owners </h2><ul> <li title="*">Always contact the Local Authority to ensure that the trees are not protected by a Tree Protection Order, planning constraints or that the tree is within a Conservation area. </li> <li title="*">Always employ a suitable trained professional Tree Surgeon, who is covered by Public Liability Insurance. (Always ask for proof). </li> <li title="*"> <strong>Never </strong> employ house callers or leaflet droppers claiming to be professional tree surgeons. </li> <li title="*">Reputable Tree Surgeons will always have some form of professional identification and qualification proof. <strong>Always </strong>ask to see it. </li> <li title="*">Reputable Tree Surgeons can be found in the Yellow Pages or contact us for further advice. </li> </ul><span class="gen">email address here</span><span class="gen">phone number here</span><span class="gen">sms phone number here</span><span class="gen">fax number here</span><span class="gen">minicom number here</span><span class="gen">postal address here</span><h3> <a href="/ccm/services/pid.jsp?pid=505"> Providing Information (505) </a></h3>
