• Who is responsible for trimming trees and cutting weeds in the parkway?

It is the responsibility of the property owner to maintain the parkway free and clear of weeds and to trim any tree branches that are in violation of City codes.  If an outside party trims the trees in the parkway, they must be a licensed arborist.  Contact the Parks Department at 235-8281 for more information.

• Can I cut down and remove a tree located in the parkway in front of my house? 

A property owner has a right to remove a tree in front of their house that is located in the parkway once a permit has been obtained from the Parks Department at 235-8281.  However, if another person is contracted to remove the tree for you, the person has to be a licensed arborist.   In addition, if removing the tree will obstruct traffic, a street closure permit needs to be obtained from the Engineering Department at 235-8341.
