Trees, Parks and Open Spaces

The way you report a tree or vegetation issue depends on whether the tree is on public or private land.

Public Land

If you have a concern about a tree or vegetation on public land, you can report it below:

• Report overgrown vegetation and mowing

• Request street and park tree maintenance

Private Land 

For tree issues on private land, it’s best to speak to the property owner directly. If you wish to prune or remove a tree on your property, apply to us for permission:

• Request a private tree inspection

Open Spaces

Make the following Service Requests:

• Report a streetlight fault 
• Apply for an assisted nature strip mowing service

Ausgrid is responsible for the repair of streetlights. If you'd like to report a streetlight fault, please follow the steps below:

1. Visit Ausgrid's website;
2. Enter a street address, postcode or pole number in the map's search function (see example below);
3. Find the streetlight you'd like to report as faulty and click 'Report this streetlight';
4. Provide details about the faulty streetlight in the online form;
5. Click 'Submit streetlight report'

Ausgrid crews repair the streetlights during the day so the information you provide about the number of lights and fault helps Ausgrid fix the problem faster. If you can't find a streetlight on the map, please contact Council on 9911 3555 or email service@lanecove.nsw.gov.au or the RMS for lights on bridges.
