Tree Canopy Preservation
The City of Brookhaven employs three full-time arborists who enforce the City’s Tree Ordinance and can provide citizens with guidance on tree removal requirements in the City of Brookhaven.
Note: The City of Brookhaven does not provide tree assessments or tree removal on private property; residents should contact private companies for those services.
Please be advised that trees located on private property are the responsibility of individual property owners. The City of Brookhaven does not intervene in civil disputes. If you are concerned about a tree on a neighboring property, discuss the matter with the neighbor; consult a private arborist for advice; and/or consult your homeowner’s insurance.
