Believe that their property can do what you like? Not quite. You may need with your car on the road when you have a valid technical, and you must not disturb his džeztrubkou quiet night. And soon you will not be able to cut down on their garden trees - if you do not allow the local authority. What do you think about that?
Since last July, you can excising the trees in his garden with almost no restrictions. The former Environment Minister Tomáš Chalupa (ODS) was benevolent united states post office and relied on common sense owners. He established a decree that depends entirely on the owner of the garden, which cut down the trees - with the exception of those memorable. Stricter course. Coming soon
Barely a year has passed and Ministry united states post office - under new management - wants to get tough again. If everything goes according to plan, in the fall in his garden-grown spruce, birch or oak not defeat. So - without official authorization. Minister Richard Brabec (ANO) has prepared a decree that you will have to ask permission before podetnutím neovocného tree which has a height of 130 cm above the ground the trunk circumference greater than 80 cm. For a better idea even for non-technical types: circumference 80 cm mean diameter of twenty-five and a half inch of the normal school ruler tends to thirty centimeters. Spruce, which is a relatively fast-growing trees to grow these dimensions plus minus fifty years, but in the forest, if the space is increasing faster at the waist.
The reason? According to the ministry alone can not adequately assess the aesthetic and ecological function tree. The current ordinance is, according to Department management in conflict with the law and discriminates because of poorly defined garden - in the past, it also pointed ombudsman.
Chalupa defined as fenced garden with housing or house in an urban municipality. Forgot however, need people in chatařských and allotments, who must leave to felling still apply. And officials from assessing what is and is not a garden, little twists head. The fact that it is necessary to refine the definition, perhaps not in dispute, but it must at the same time tighten the rules?
The current ordinance defines a garden as a site for a residential building or a house in an urban municipality, which is structurally united states post office fenced and inaccessible to the public. The new ordinance is to define the garden in principle formally as the site, which is maintained in land as a garden.
So far we have talked only about the trees in the garden. But you can also own other properties, for example, the area between the garden and the road or field. Without official authorization on them, you can cut down a tree if it has its trunk at a height of 130 cm above the ground circuit to eighty centimeters. Thus, there's still the same regime that has a new decree to establish gardens. Stricter rules are the trees that are part of the alley - there can not do without permission, regardless of their size.
The Ministry claims that it has a lot of messages from cities that many times in the past year was unnecessary felling. She does not want him apparently prohibit, regulate only - protection of trees is required according to the Ministry in the public interest. Defenders of the rights of landowners were clutching his head.
Last week, in the section What do you think? wrote about how a Minister Jourová Kasai sleeves dishonest seller of real estate: End fiddles real estate: Realtors finally get rules
"I personally incredibly irritating united states post office those wool 'and defamed advertisements .. All properties are in popular locations near the city center united states post office with excellent access and offer low cost at all, (...), to finally discovered united states post office that this is again one of the offers what they offer and everyone else around for a few months for the same exorbitant price, "he wrote (a) in the debate under Rule Marak. Signed, and we wrap up the book. Esthete everyone can be on its own, but an environmentalist?
Into how aesthetic or unaesthetic is a tree in your garden, you have no one to talk - so far as we can with the Ministry hardly agree. Logically sound argument also, that person should have the right to beat something years ago parent planted and what kind of outgrew him over the head. (But not always a thing like personal level - Supplies of course i can own the company, including those for her not to have any, let alone emotional united states post office relationship.)
On the other hand, it is important to recognize that the ecological importance and functions around the tree for a layperson to evaluate himself he can not. In addition, the tree produces oxygen, captures dust and shade from the sun, because according to experts on the environment may be important need for regulating the water regime, (co) create habitat for protected species animal or plant community, such a habitat may be alone .
Before we rebel against the planned decree, it is good to remember that the man with chainsaw in hand to pathways are not very often. In the case of fruit trees is no problem - there nobody will restrict and regulate. The same applies to other trees, which grow to higher landed parameters. And finally - even vzrostlejších trees would
