Please call 503-691-3026 or email for any questions
Removal of trees on private property in Tualatin is regulated by Chapter 33 of the Tualatin Development Code. Tree removal may require approval before cutting, limbing or removal can occur. Street trees (trees along a public street) are regulated by the Tualatin Parks and Recreation Department.
Tree Removal
- Removal of up to 4 trees in a calendar year is allowed without a tree removal permit, except for:
- Trees are approved as part of a site plan approval.
- Trees designated as a Heritage Tree.
- Removal of 5 or more trees in a calendar year on sites without a site plan approval may be allowed with a tree removal permit. Please visit the Forms, Applications, and Fees for more information.
- Removal of 10 or fewer trees in a calendar year on sites with a site plan approval may be allowed by approval of a Minor Architectural Review (MAR) application attached to your online MAR application in eTrakit.
- Removal of 11 or more trees in a calendar year on sites with a site plan approval may be allowed by approval of an Architectural Review application (AR) attached to your online AR application in eTrakit.
