Licking County has no general tree-removal permit for homeowners. The real permit framework is Granville's: development that disturbs an acre or more needs a tree survey and protection plan before clearing.
Licking County has no ordinance locking down individual heritage trees, but Granville's Tree Preservation Code protects large existing trees on development sites and steers builders to save specimens rather than clear-cut.
Where tree protection applies in Licking County, on Granville development sites and for city street trees, removed trees must be replaced. Granville's code sets replacement planting drawn from an approved preferred-tree list.
