If you're designing the layout for a new office park, you will want to ensure that it is not just functional but good to look at as well. You need to focus most of your attention on the actual structure, of course, but you'll want to landscape the area and, if you can, retain some of its original, natural look. If the site itself contains a number of mature trees, will you be able to keep all of them, and what factors will you need to consider as you work?
Dealing With Nature
In an ideal world, you'd like to keep every single mature tree on your building site, even though they may get in the way during construction. Builders are, however, used to this type of scenario, and once you have chosen what is going to stay, they will make sure that it is protected in all situations.
Tree Report
Yet you will want to determine the condition of each tree to see if it is healthy and is likely to stay so. For this, you need to bring in a qualified arboriculturalist who can examine everything, tell you how healthy the tree is and give you advice about its protection.
Protected Species
Don't be surprised if some of the trees on your plot may be protected if they are of a certain species, and you will need to take some expert advice before passing this on to surveyors, architects and builders. Each one of these contractors will need to plan their work accordingly so that you don't get into trouble for non-compliance.
Managing Issues
You will certainly want to know if any of those trees are in ill health or if they are harbouring any kind of disease or pest infestation. If they are, you need to discuss potential removal and how this may impact your development plan. Above all, you will need to manage any risks and will certainly need to take action if there is any danger that the tree may fall. You will want to err on the side of caution, as you could be ultimately liable if you knew of a possible issue.
First Things First
As you can see, there's much to discuss and a lot of factors to take into consideration. Begin by bringing in a qualified arboriculturalist so that they can compile a tree report and you can get the process underway.
