Replacement trees required when protected or street trees are removed. Typical ratio 1:1 or 2:1 for larger specimens. Species often specified from city-approved list for parkway strips.
When a removal permit is issued for a protected tree (street tree, development-protected tree), Clovis typically requires replacement as a condition. Ratios vary: 1:1 for routine street tree removals, potentially 2:1 or higher for larger specimens or trees removed at development. Replacement species for parkway strips are usually selected from the city's approved street tree list, which considers drought tolerance, root behavior near sidewalks/utilities, and canopy characteristics. Replacement typically required within one planting season. In-lieu fees may substitute for physical replacement in some cases.
Failure to plant required replacement: permit condition violation, bond forfeiture if posted, code enforcement action.
