Tree removal approval in Stirling: Adelaide Hills Council
Stirling sits in the Adelaide Hills Council area
If a tree on your property meets the regulated (1 metre trunk circumference) or significant (2 metres) threshold, removing or damaging it is development and needs approval through PlanSA, often with a condition to plant replacement trees or pay into an urban tree fund. Under the current rules only trees within 3 metres of a house or swimming pool can be removed without approval, and pruning of protected trees is limited to 30 per cent of the canopy every five years. Some species are exempt, so check the exempt species list and your council before booking removal.
Official SA tree removal guidance →How it works in SA
South Australia protects regulated and significant trees state-wide under the Planning, Development and Infrastructure Act 2016 and the Planning and Design Code, administered through PlanSA, in metropolitan Adelaide, the Adelaide Hills and parts of the Mount Barker council area. Reforms that took effect in 2024 lowered the protection thresholds: a regulated tree has a trunk circumference of 1 metre or more measured 1 metre above ground, and a significant tree 2 metres or more.
A qualified arborist quoting your job will usually know whether your tree is exempt, permit-dependent or urgent, and many handle the council paperwork as part of the quote.
