Where tree protection applies in Licking County, on Granville development sites and for city street trees, removed trees must be replaced. Granville's code sets replacement planting drawn from an approved preferred-tree list.
Private homeowners in unincorporated Licking County face no replacement mandate for cutting a yard tree. The requirement kicks in under Granville's Chapter 1184, Section 1184.10 (Tree Planting and Replacement), which ties replacement plantings to the available tree-lawn width and the village's current Preferred Tree List. Species diversity is emphasized after emerald ash borer wiped out much of central Ohio's ash canopy, pushing communities away from monocultures. Newark likewise replaces street trees it removes from the public right-of-way.
Failing to install required replacement trees on a Granville project can hold up final approval and bring enforcement. Removing a city street tree can obligate you to fund a like replacement.
