Unincorporated Williamson County designates no heritage or protected trees. With no zoning power, the county cannot shield trees by size or species. Heritage-tree protection exists only in cities such as Georgetown and Round Rock.
Williamson County has no heritage-tree or landmark-tree ordinance. Texas counties lack the zoning authority that lets a city protect large live oaks, pecans, or other specimens by diameter, so no size threshold or species list applies on unincorporated land. Central Texas cities fill this gap: Georgetown protects heritage trees at 18 inches in diameter and larger, and Round Rock, Cedar Park, and Leander protect specimen trees within their limits. On unincorporated property, only a subdivision's own covenants might safeguard a particular tree.
None at the county level, since no heritage-tree ordinance exists. City heritage-tree rules impose steep per-inch penalties for unpermitted removal within municipal limits.
