These ordinances\nare meant to regulate obstruction of valuable views and sunlight between\nindividual properties. For instance, if a homeowner plants a large tree that\nblocks sunlight to their yard, the homeowner can be in violation of such\nordinances if they exist in their city. Such violations generally lead to\nwarnings; but if nothing is done to mollify the warning, the penalties can\nincrease to fines and litigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2777 Street Ordinances<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also tree ordinances that regulate the maintenance\nand safety of private trees on public travel paths. Such paths include\nsidewalks, roads, creeks, parking lots, parks, and more. If your tree is\nblocking a public right-of-way, like one of these paths just mentioned, you\ncould be in violation of a tree street ordinance. &nbsp;The same consequence applies if your tree is\nposing some sort of public hazard. There are also similar ordinances that\nmandate certain tree planting requirements, such as in parking lots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2778 Protection Ordinances<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>In virtually every city and town, there are trees that have\ncertain essential value or historical significance. For this reason, there are\nalso regulations that protect such trees. These are referred to as tree protection\nordinances. If a protected tree needs to be removed or trimmed, a specific\npermit of authority is required. So always be very careful when tampering with\na tree that is not on your property; because you never know if it is protected\nby local jurisdiction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where to Get Professional Tree Advice<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.acompletetreecare.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/a-Copy-300x174.jpg\" alt=\"Indianapolis Tree Care 317-783-2518\" class=\"wp-image-231\"\/><figcaption>Indianapolis Tree Care 317-783-2518<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Call Complete Tree Care at 317-783-2518<\/strong> for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acompletetreecare.com\">Indianapolis tree service<\/a> you can trust.
