Truckee Development Code Section 18.30.080 regulates grading and vegetation removal. Tree removal for defensible space under TFPD Ordinance 02-2012 is encouraged, while removal of significant trees outside defensible-space zones may require Town review.
Truckee Development Code Section 18.30.080 (Grading and Vegetation Removal) requires Town review for site disturbance and removal of significant vegetation in certain contexts, particularly during development projects. Routine removal of dead, dying, or hazardous trees - and removal required to meet TFPD defensible space standards under Ordinance 02-2012 - generally does not require a Town tree permit, though TFPD or California Department of Forestry permits may apply for larger commercial timber operations. The Tahoe Donner HOA Tree Removal Permit Program imposes additional review on HOA-member parcels.
Vegetation removal in violation of DC 18.30.080 (or grading without a required permit) is enforced as a Development Code violation with administrative citations and required mitigation/replanting.
