Council is responsible for managing powerline clearance in its declared areas of Pakenham, Beaconsfield and Emerald. Information and maps showing Council’s declared areas can be found in Council’s Electrical Line Clearance Management Plan (ELCMP) which is available on Council’s website

Tree Pruning will occur in September and October 2024. Works will be audited and will be compliant with Council’s ELCMP.
