Pearland requires owners to trim trees and shrubs along streets and sidewalks so they do not obstruct rights-of-way, traffic signs, or pedestrian clearances.
Pearland's rights-of-way and trees chapters require property owners to keep tree limbs trimmed back from public sidewalks and streets. Standard clearances follow Texas municipal practice: at least 8 feet over sidewalks and at least 14 feet over streets, plus clear sightlines at intersections. The city may issue a notice giving the owner a set time to trim. If the owner fails to comply, Pearland's contractors may perform the work and bill the owner. Tree work in the public right-of-way and around city facilities generally requires city coordination or a permit.
Notice of violation, citation, and city-performed trimming with costs charged to the property owner.
