Understanding Belleville's Tree Ordinance and Permit Requirements

It's important for Belleville residents to be aware of the city's tree regulations. Here's what you need to know about permits and tree care:

• Tree Trimming and Removal Permits: In Belleville, permits are not required for general tree trimming or removal unless the tree's root system is complex enough to potentially interfere with wiring or piping. A significant concern for the city, especially on waterfront properties, is preventing debris from falling into the lake.
• Tree Planting Permits: Belleville has a new Tree Ordinance (Ordinance No. 2024-02) that requires no-cost permits to plant trees within the city. This ordinance aims to preserve and enhance the urban forest. Key aspects of the ordinance include:
• Prohibited Species: Certain invasive or problematic tree species are prohibited from being planted in the city (e.g., Ailanthus Altissima (Tree of Heaven), Elaeagnus Angustifolia (Russian Olive), Ulmus Pumila (Siberian Elm), Pyrus Callervana (Callery Pear/Bradford Pear), Rhamnus Cathartica (Common Buckthorn)).
• Location Restrictions: Trees should not be planted where they could obstruct signs, traffic signals, streetlights, or interfere with utilities. Proper setbacks from streets, sidewalks, and property lines are also outlined.
• Protection of Public Trees: The ordinance emphasizes the protection of existing public trees, making it unlawful to damage, prune, remove, or attach anything to them without proper authorization.
• City/Street Trees: Any tree located on city-maintained property (often referred to as "public trees" within the Tree Ordinance) will be maintained by the City of Belleville's Department of Public Works (DPW). If you have concerns about a tree on city property, our team can help evaluate its location and either refer the property owner to the DPW for necessary work or recommend a suitable professional if the tree is on private property.
