The City of Atlanta’s Tree Protection Ordinance is one of the most comprehensive in the region, requiring permits for the removal of any tree exceeding six inches in diameter. Specimen trees, heritage trees, and boundary trees are given extra protection, with stringent review processes and mitigation requirements for their removal. Atlanta also enforces replacement tree planting and recompense fees to offset any canopy loss from development projects.

Our arborist consulting services include tree risk assessments, construction impact evaluations, and expert testimony for variance applications. By ensuring compliance with the city’s ordinances, we streamline your land development projects while preserving Atlanta’s vital tree canopy.
