Do I Need a Permit in Knoxfield?
Knoxfield is in the Knox City Council. Knox's planning scheme protects trees across much of the municipality, especially in the Dandenong foothills, where landscape and vegetation overlays apply. In residential zones, the statewide canopy-tree rule (Clause 52.37) can require a permit for larger trees near the front or rear boundary even with no overlay, and on lots over 4,000 m² removing native vegetation, including dead vegetation, needs a permit.
In the foothills it's safest to assume a permit is needed. We check the overlays on your property first and can book the work once the permit is through.
