Tree felling in the municipality of Borne in weeks 13 and 14
Tree felling work will take place in the municipality of Borne in weeks 13 and 14. The municipality is carrying out these activities to ensure the safety and vitality of the trees.
Work is the result of a tree inspection
Every three years, a tree inspection is conducted in the municipality of Borne. This inspection assesses which trees are no longer stable or vital. The trees to be felled are located throughout the municipality.
Felling permits have been granted
For the felling of certain trees, a felling permit is required under the felling regulations, depending on the thickness of the tree trunk. Permits have already been issued for the trees that require one. In total, this involves 25 trees. The felling work will be carried out by the company Donkergroen, on behalf of the municipality. Trees that do not require a felling permit will be felled by Twente Milieu. This involves 18 trees.
New trees will be planted
The company Donkergroen will implement the mandatory compensation scheme, which means that new trees will be planted to replace the felled ones. The replanting will take place at the same location or near the removed tree. The compensation scheme applies to both trees with and without a felling permit.
Inconvenience for residents during the work
Residents may experience some inconvenience during the work, such as partial road closures or noise pollution. The municipality asks for understanding in this regard.
