Tree calculator


If you are a non-homeowner considering applying to remove a protected tree, use this calculator to estimate the replanting and/or financial contribution amounts that would be required under the Urban Forest Act 2023.

If related to a building project, this is most useful at the design stage as it can be used to compare options and help you to refine your design to retain mature trees.

You can use this calculator to estimate the replanting and/or financial contribution amounts that would be required if you gain approval to remove a protected tree.
