A non-development-related tree removal permit is required to remove a tree growing on public or private property, including front and back yards.
City-owned trees on City lots or in public rights of way are also subject to the permit process unless they are an immediate hazard.
The minimum fee for a non-development-related tree removal application is $518.62, plus an additional 14.75% tech fee.
