Rockville values its trees and forests because of the many benefits they provide to the community.
To maintain the health of our trees and environment, we will remove trees that are dead, diseased, severely damaged or pose a risk to public safety. We will only remove trees that are on city property. To determine the ownership of a tree, contact the Forestry Department.
City trees include:
trees in city parks
street trees located between the curb and sidewalk
