In the Tree Ordinance, depending on the zoning of the properties, the buffer zone is defined as between 3 and 10 feet from the property line of each property. Within this zone on each property, a Tree Removal Permit to remove any tree of 3 inches diameter or more would need to be obtained from the Town Building Inspector. In addition, clear cutting of ten trees on a lot or removal of trees of 6 inches diameter or more on steep slopes now requires that you obtain a permit from the Town Building Inspector. Or Call 762-8419. It takes years to grow a tree and minutes to cut one down.
Trees are a part of our shared environment.
