New Paltz, NY’s Tree Removal Laws
In the Village of New Paltz, your tree is a “shade tree” if it is “on public or private property along any public street or thoroughfare in the space or area measured 20 feet from the edge of the curb or road pavement.”
That means that, “these shade trees cannot be removed without approval of the Shade Tree Commission.” You can contact them at shadetree@villageofnewpaltz.org.
In the Town of New Paltz, tree conservation laws reach even further than the Village’s. If your tree is taller than seven feet, and are within 55 feet of the center of a nearby road, then you must “submit a complete application in writing” to the New Paltz Town Building Inspector at P.O. Box 550 New Paltz, NY 12561.
“Several exemptions exist which allow for removal of trees without a permit, including trees that have been severely damaged from storms or other natural causes and trees that could cause public endangerment.”
