§ 6-7. Trees in public places.

Latest version.

No person shall remove, trim, prune or destroy, or allow, or cause the removal or destruction of, or undertake any action that could impair the health or growth of, a tree of any size or description in a public place or on an unimproved lot without first obtaining a permit from the town administrator or designee, whose decision to issue or deny the permit shall be governed by the requirements of state law, relevant town right-of-way agreements and the criteria listed in this chapter. The town administrator or designee shall require a bond of any permittee sufficient to ensure the replacement of the tree(s) in question. The bond requirement may be waived only if less than three (3) trees are affected.
