Permit Before the Saw
Section 7.11.2 of Simpsonville's zoning ordinance requires a Tree Removal Permit for any tree 12 inches or larger in diameter at breast height, regardless of its health. Diameter at breast height is measured 4.5 feet above the ground.
The ordinance lets the Planning Director waive the permit for a hazardous tree in imminent danger of falling. If a tree is cracked, uprooting or already on a structure, call the city and the crew right away rather than waiting on paperwork. See emergency tree removal.
