In Vancouver, protecting and nurturing our urban forest is a priority, and we’re here to assist you in navigating the tree removal permit process. Whether you’re considering work on a street tree or a tree on your property, it’s crucial to be aware of the regulations in place to ensure the well-being of our city’s green landscape.
Permit Requirements:
To determine whether a tree removal permit is necessary, consider the following criteria:
- Is the tree designated as a Heritage Tree?
- Is the tree within a right-of-way?
- Is the property larger than an acre?
- Can the lot be subdivided based on current zoning?
- Is the tree in or near a Critical Area or sensitive area buffer?
- Is the tree on a lot developed since 1996, and was it planted as mitigation or retained as a building permit condition?
Answering “yes” to any of these questions indicates the need for a permit.
