Summary of request
- What assessment has the council made of the potential impact of ash dieback (Chalara) in the authority area and what strategy does it have to cope?

- How many of those trees are on council-owned land, and how many of those are ‘street trees’ in residential areas.
- How many of those trees are on non-council-owned land?
- What is the estimated cost to the council of felling and/or otherwise dealing with all trees in question 2 and over what timescale is that cost estimated?
- How much of that cost does the council expect to recover from third parties?
- How many trees has the council committed to plant specifically to replace trees lost to Chalara?
