Trees in the public right-of-way are city property and require authorization for removal through the Public Works department. A Right-of-Way Permit is needed for any tree work in the ROW. Development projects must comply with the Unified Development Code landscaping standards. Given the semi-arid climate, the city encourages water-wise replacement species.
