Dead or Dying Trees

Trees that will be cut down:
  • Common area dead trees that endanger a resident's home will be cut as soon as possible with our tree removal contractor. This may take up to a 30 days, after reviewed and informed, depending on their schedule and workload and condition of the tree.
  • Common area dying trees will be assessed and depending on the circumstance, the tree will cut down in a reasonable amount of time. If there is a disagreement with the condition of the tree it is up to the homeowner to hire a licensed and certified arborist to assess the condition of the tree. 

Removal of cut trees:
  • It is at the discretion of the HOA to remove the tree after it is cut down depending on the situation and circumstances.
Living trees:
  • Trees that are alive, in good condition and not excessively leaning will not be cut down.
Trees on residents' property:
  • Trees on residents' property will not be removed by the HOA and are the responsibility of the homeowner to address.
  • Tree limbs that overhang a property line are the responsibility of the property owner in which they overhang. They can be trimmed if needed by the property owner that they are over.
