The City of Monash Electric Line Clearance Management Plan’s purpose is to minimise:

  • The potential for contact between powerlines and its tree population
  • Reduce the drastic pruning of trees near powerlines outside of the Australian Standard AS4373-2007 ‘Pruning of amenity trees’
  • Outages to its residents, businesses and community

Following identification of trees that are potentially in conflict with powerlines, Council will allocate the associated works to its current list of contractors both programmed works and re-active works.
