Coweta County requires developers to meet tree-density and replacement standards when protected trees are removed. Site plans must document what is preserved, removed, and replaced.
When permitted tree removal occurs on a regulated site, Coweta County's Tree Preservation Ordinance requires the developer to meet minimum tree-density and replacement standards. Site plans must show buffers, landscaping, tree species, and the count of plantings that are being preserved, removed, and planted to replace what was taken. The County Arborist/Landscape Architect reviews compliance and can inspect the site before submittal. Replacement trees should come from species suited to the Piedmont. These requirements attach to non-residential and development projects; a single-family homeowner replacing a yard tree faces no county replacement mandate.
Failing to meet replacement or density standards on a development site brings enforcement holds, corrective planting, and fines. Homeowner yard trees carry no county replacement requirement.
