Trevor Cox, Principal and Senior Planner/ Arborist - MCIP,  RPP

Trevor is a founding partner of DHC and has over 30 years of experience in environmental planning and urban forest management. Early in his career, he mapped the ecology of many of the forest tenures on the coast of British Columbia, which led him to realize the interconnectedness of trees and landscapes and the benefits we receive from these systems. Trevor has since applied his knowledge of vegetation, soil, and climate interactions to develop innovative management plans that maximize the benefits of green infrastructure while obtaining public support to establish policies and procedures to sustain them on public and private land. He has worked on numerous urban forest management plans that review municipal tree bylaws, their operational processes, and how work is administered amongst the planning, engineering, and parks departments to determine the most efficient delivery of services considering their urban forest needs. His expertise in tree risk policy and procedures and tree appraisal is regularly called upon by both the legal profession and government bodies
