Before any pre-construction or building permit is issued a Tree Disposition Plan must be submitted to the permit office by a qualified and approved Urban Forester.

A construction tree disposition plan is a document that outlines how trees on a construction site will be managed during the building process. It is often required by local governments as part of the permitting process for new construction projects.

There are several elements that should be included in a construction tree disposition plan in order to make it complete and ready for submission for a permit.

These include:

1. A site map or layout plan: This should show the location of all trees on the construction site, as well as any existing structures or features that may be affected by the tree management plan.
2. An inventory of trees: This should include a list of all trees on the site, including their species, size, and location. The inventory should also include any trees that will be removed or relocated as part of the construction process.
3. A description of tree protection measures: This should outline any measures that will be taken to protect trees during construction, such as installing protective fencing or barriers around the trees.
4. A plan for tree removal: If any trees will be removed as part of the construction process, the tree disposition plan should include a detailed plan for how this will be done. This should include information on how the trees will be removed, the methods that will be used, and how the area will be restored after the trees are gone.
5. A plan for tree relocation: If any trees will be relocated as part of the construction process, the tree disposition plan should include a detailed plan for how this will be done. This should include information on where the trees will be moved to, how they will be transported, and how they will be cared for during the relocation process.
6. A plan for tree maintenance: The tree disposition plan should include a plan for how the trees on the site will be maintained during and after construction. This should include information on watering, pruning, and any other maintenance activities that will be necessary to keep the trees healthy.
7. A timeline: The tree disposition plan should include a timeline for all activities related to tree management, including tree removal, relocation, and maintenance. This will help ensure that all tree-related tasks are completed in a timely manner and that the construction project stays on schedule.

Overall, a comprehensive tree disposition plan is essential for ensuring the proper management of trees on a construction site. By Tree PhD Urban Forestry including all of the necessary elements outlined above, you can be confident that your plan is complete and ready for submission for a permit.
