Tree Topping
While tree trimming is necessary and good for the health and structure of the tree, FCCSA would like to remind you that excessive tree trimming or“ tree topping” is not allowed on shade trees. To completely remove branches to the point where the tree looks like the image above is a violation and you will receive a Deed Restriction Violation for trimming a tree in this manner. Current ANSI( American National Standards Institute) tree standards state that no more than 25 % of the tree canopy should be removed in a single growing season. FCCSA staff is happy to help answer any questions and provide any additional information on how to approach tree trimming if you have any questions or concerns. As always, we look forward to continuing to work with you on maintaining a wonderful community together.
