Does the forestry department prune the street trees, or is that the homeowners responsibility?
The forestry department has established a pruning cycle for street trees. At least once every 7 years the street trees will be pruned by the forestry department. Regular maintenance (like branches growing too low over the street, sidewalk or driveway) that may be necessary between pruning rotations is the responsibility of the property owner. NOTE: A pruning/removal permit must be obtained from the forestry department before performing work on street trees. Permits are available at NO COST to the property owner.
