Minimum Distance Standards
- At least 10′ from driveways, wheelchair ramps and fire hydrants
- No closer than 5′ behind or 10′ in front of traffic or street signs
- At least 5′ from underground utility lines (water, sewer, gas, power)
- At least 10′ from street lights, farther for larger trees
- At least 15′ from storm drainage inlets
- At least 30′ from intersections
These minimum distance standards are only used as guidelines. Every site has unique characteristics that must be considered before a tree is planted. The final location of a tree will be determined by the Tree Warden.
