Permit Application and Process

Overview

A permit application is a document required for work regarding trees and landscaping. 

Tree Permit Application forms are available online or obtained at City Hall during regular business hours.

Tree Permit applications can be submitted online via e-TRAKiT.  To take advantage of filling out an online application, you will need to create an account through e-TRAKiT.  If you need assistance, contact the Planning staff at 305-809-3725, and they can help you with this process.
