What should I do if a tree lifts the sidewalk adjacent to my home?

January 29, 2025

Consult with an ISA certified arborist to determine whether the tree can be preserved. If not, check to determine if a street tree removal permit is required and obtain one if needed. A Right-of-Way (ROW) permit may be required for the repair of the sidewalk. For more information on Right-of-Way Permits contact the Engineering Department staff at (503) 925-2305.
