Green Space Strategy & Policy Creation

Green Space Strategies & Policies

When it comes to managing our green spaces we often consider grass cutting and weeding but fail to document our overall plan to manage these open-spaces or the principles which guide us.

Green Space Strategies and Policies provide a consistent approach which is documented and, if followed, defendable if we have to justify our decisions and actions.

Green Space Strategies provide an overarching plan to achieve your goals.

They often include an overall vision, objectives, an action plan, and consider issues such as climate change, sustainability, supporting wildlife, improving access, managing risks to the public, including community involvement and managing pests and diseases.

Green Space policies will establish the guiding rules and principles for your decision-making when it comes to managing your open-spaces.

Green Space Policies will usually include a clear purpose, the scope of the policy, which land types are covered, responsibilities for maintenance works and inspections, how and when its reviewed and how risk and emergencies are dealt with

Strategies & Policies are important documents which show you have given consideration to safety, sustainability, wildlife conservation, community involvement and are pro-actively managing any risks with the benefits in a pragmatic and cohesive manner.

PBA Arboricultural Solutions has experience in creating, reviewing and adapting these documents to align with all elements of your green space management.
