According to Vancouver Municipal Code 12.04, a permit is required for planting, major pruning and removal of street trees. Street trees are those in which the trunk is wholly or partially located within the right-of-way. For information, call the city’s urban forestry department at 360-487-8328.

To participate in a planting for west-side neighborhoods including Rose Village, Central Park and Hudson’s Bay, meet at 8:45 a.m.
