As a responsible tree manager we carry out routine, proactive surveys of trees under our management by trained arboriculturists to identify risks posed by them.
We have surveyed each of our sites and graded them in accordance with the risks posed by the trees.
- High risk sites are surveyed every 18 months.
- Medium risk sites are surveyed every 3 years.
- Low risk sites are surveyed every 4.5 years.
The borough's wards have also been split into 3 areas for the schedule:
South | North | Central |
Barms | Dinting | Blackbrook |
Burbage | Gamesley | Chapel East |
Central | Hadfield North | Chapel West |
Cote Heath | Hadfield South | Corbar |

Stone Bench | Old Glossop | Hope Valley |
Temple | Padfield | New Mills East |
| Simmondley | New Mills West |
| St Johns | Sett |
