Tree Regulations in Marion

Tree removal in Marion is managed by the City of Marion. Under South Australia's Planning, Development and Infrastructure Act 2016, trees with a trunk circumference of 2 metres or more measured at 1 metre above natural ground level are classified as significant trees and require development approval before removal.

To apply for removal of a significant tree, you will need to lodge a development application with the City of Marion, supported by an arborist report from a qualified arborist. The report must document the tree's condition, the reason for removal, and demonstrate that removal is reasonable in the circumstances.

Tree Removal FAQs — Marion

Tree removal and pruning are the most requested services across Marion’s diverse suburbs. Southern coastal suburbs like Hallett Cove and Sheidow Park see demand for native vegetation management and bushfire preparation. Inner suburbs like Oaklands Park and Mitchell Park commonly need large tree removal and stump grinding for ageing eucalypts and pines.
Tree removal costs in Marion range from $400 to $4,000+ depending on tree size, species and access. Southern suburbs with larger native trees tend toward the higher end. Stump grinding adds $200-$600 per stump. The generally flat terrain across most of Marion means equipment access is usually straightforward, keeping costs competitive.
Yes. Hallett Cove has significant native vegetation, particularly around the Hallett Cove Conservation Park and coastal cliff areas. Native vegetation on private property may also be protected under the Native Vegetation Act. Clearing native vegetation requires approval from the Native Vegetation Council. An arborist can assess whether your trees are subject to these protections.
Trees along a fence line can often be pruned to accommodate the new fence without full removal. If removal is necessary and the tree has a trunk circumference of 2m+ at 1m above ground, development approval is required. For smaller trees, check with the City of Marion about any local provisions. Always discuss boundary trees with your neighbour before any work.
