ROH Section 10-1.4 requires Pearl City residents to obtain DPR permits before removing, trimming, or pruning street trees along neighborhood roadways.
ROH Section 10-1.4 authorizes the Department of Parks and Recreation Director to issue permits for replacement, removal, planting, spraying, trimming, or pruning of street trees. In Pearl City, the street-tree canopy along Kamehameha Highway, Waimano Home Road, and interior subdivision streets is significant and governed by this permit requirement. Private-property trees outside the public right-of-way are not subject to Section 10-1.4 unless they are listed as exceptional trees under ROH Chapter 40 Article 8. Unauthorized cutting of city street trees in Pearl City can trigger restoration requirements.
Unpermitted removal or destructive pruning of Pearl City street trees can result in fines, mandatory replanting at the violator's expense, and city enforcement actions.
