Sacramento FAQ

Can I cut down the parkway tree in front of my house?

No. Parkway trees are city-owned. Removal requires a Public Works permit and typically only occurs for hazard, disease, or sidewalk-conflict reasons.

Who pays if a parkway tree damages my sidewalk?

Sacramento's sidewalk-repair program shares costs in many cases. Contact Public Works to request inspection and the current 50/50 cost-share program.
