Pompano Beach requires Tree Permits under Section 155.2411 for tree removal. Applications require a tree survey by an ISA Certified Arborist. Owner-occupied residential properties under one acre have reduced requirements if tree counts and height are maintained. Removal before obtaining a permit doubles the fee. Tree trimming does not require a permit but must use a licensed trimmer.
Section 155.2411 of the Pompano Beach Zoning Code requires a Tree Permit before removing, relocating, or substantially altering trees. Applications must include a tree survey and assessment by an ISA Certified Arborist or registered Florida landscape architect. Specimen or historical trees on owner-occupied residential properties of one acre or less are exempt from some requirements when height and tree counts are maintained. Removing a tree before obtaining a permit doubles the application fee. Tree trimming does not require a permit but must be performed by a Broward County Licensed Tree Trimmer. The Tree Permit Application FAQ is available on the city's website.
Unauthorized removal doubles the fee. Non-replacement per the canopy table results in additional penalties.
