Ewa Gentry residents must obtain a Department of Facility Maintenance permit under ROH §10-1.4 before planting, pruning, or removing any tree in the public right-of-way along their property frontage.
ROH §10-1.4 authorizes the Director of Facility Maintenance to adopt rules for trimming, pruning, planting, spraying, and removal of public shade trees, hedges, and shrubs. In Ewa Gentry, this covers monkeypod, plumeria, and shower trees in planting strips along Fort Weaver Road, Kapolei Parkway, and internal subdivision streets. Permits are required for roots damaging sidewalks, hazardous limbs, or species changes. Many Ewa Gentry HOAs also regulate front-yard and common-area trees, so homeowners should check both city and covenant rules. Private-yard trees are only protected if they are designated Exceptional under ROH Chapter 40 Article 8.
Unpermitted removal or damage to public trees can result in civil fines and replacement costs assessed by the city.
