What are the repercussions if you trim or prune street trees without a permit?
We hope people do not take it upon themselves to prune street trees. Street tree pruning must be performed carefully by a trained and experienced arborist. If a person removes, tops or prunes street trees without permission from the city, they can be fined and they become liable for damages to the tree. So please contact the city for a permit prior to conducting any pruning on a street tree.
