What is the City’s policy on trimming trees owned by the City, growing in the right-of-way next to city streets?
The trees found in the grassy area between the street and sidewalk or within any City Right of Way are City owned trees. The Department of Public Works is responsible for the maintaining, trimming, and if necessary, removal of these trees. The City has an annual tree trimming and removal program that is contracted yearly. For more information contact Ervin Suida, DPW Superintendent at (517) 546-7510.
