Tree work in Morisset
A heritage tree and high value bush
One of Morisset's heritage items is a tree. The Lake Macquarie LEP lists Tree-Morisset's Campsite, a local heritage item, marking where Major Morisset is believed to have camped.
A council biodiversity study found the bush in and around Morisset has very high ecological value, with threatened species including squirrel gliders and the regent honeyeater. A hollow or a nest in a yard tree is worth pointing out before any work is quoted.
The Morisset Hospital Precinct is listed as a heritage item of State significance, and its grounds are not part of any private job.

The council question is answered
Your council, the tree's height and trunk, its distance from the house and the species decide whether a permit or an exemption applies.

You get it in writing
Scope, timber, stump and date on one page, and nothing is booked until you have said yes.
Morisset questions
Fire and flood around Morisset
Has Morisset had bushfires?
Yes. The national parks fire history records a 2000-01 wildfire of about 51 hectares named the Morisset Fire. Dead branches over the roof are the first thing to clear on bush blocks.
Where is the heritage tree?
The campsite is marked under a tree near the Morisset railway, according to the council. It is a listed item, never part of a private job.
Does flooding affect tree work here?
It can. The council has adopted a flood study for the broader Morisset area, which maps land at risk. Waterlogged ground changes where a machine can safely stand.
