Tree Replacement Requirements: Anza vs Moreno Valley

When oak trees are removed under Ordinance No. 559, replacement is required at ratios ranging from 3:1 to 10:1 depending on the size of the removed tree. Replacement trees must be native species, typically 15-gallon minimum, with a 3-5 year establishment monitoring period.

Tree replacement in Moreno Valley is required when street trees are removed or when development projects alter approved landscape plans. Typical ratios are 1:1 for street trees and 2:1 to 3:1 for protected habitat trees.
