Titusville protects grand live oaks and native cabbage palms. Permits are required for removal of protected trees over 8 inches diameter. The city's adjacency to Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge emphasizes native vegetation preservation. Replacement planting may be required.
Titusville requires property owners in city limits to maintain trees that encroach on public rights-of-way. Branches must be trimmed to provide at least 8 feet of vertical clearance over sidewalks and 14 feet over public roadways. Dead, diseased, or hazardous trees that pose a risk to public safety may be ordered removed at the owner's expense. The public works department maintains trees in city road rights-of-way. Protected or heritage tree ordinances may apply in certain areas — check with Titusville planning before removing large trees. The tropical/subtropical climate influences tree growth patterns and maintenance schedules.
Failure to trim overhanging branches after a notice results in the county performing the work and billing the owner $200–$2,000 depending on scope. Emergency removals for hazardous trees may be performed without prior notice.
