1 rule for unincorporated Cumberland County, North Carolina.
Verified from official government sources
Homeowners at existing single-family homes need no tree-removal permit. On development sites, Fayetteville requires a Clear-Cutting Permit and strongly regulates removal of specimen trees (30-inch caliper or larger), which needs justification and mitigation planting.
Fayetteville UDO Sec. 30-5.B.6.e.2 (Clear-Cutting Permit Sec. 30-2.C.9)
Removal of specimen trees, while strongly discouraged, may sometimes be necessary due to the location of a tree or trees on a site or the size of the site. Applicants desiring to remove specimen tree(s) shall present compelling site design arguments for such removal.
