Tree Removal Permits & Laws in New York
You generally do NOT need a permit to remove a tree on private property in NYC unless the tree is located within 50 feet of a street tree or is on a landmark preservation property.
However, there are some important exceptions and considerations:
- Street Trees: If the tree to be removed is within 50 feet of a street tree, you DO need a Tree Work Permit from the NYC Parks Department.
- Landmark Properties: If your property is designated as a landmark, you may need additional approvals from the Landmarks Preservation Commission before removing any trees.
