Permits and Local Rules for Tree Removal in Jacksonville
Jacksonville is not a cut-anything market. Jacksonville classifies a “protected tree” as 11.5 inches DBH or greater citywide, with a lower 6-inch threshold within 20 feet of a street right-of-way and 8 inches within 10 feet of a property line, and removed live oaks must be replaced 1:1 while other protected species require 3:1 mitigation. [S2] What that means in practice: confirm whether your trunk falls under the local threshold before a crew is booked, because the fine lands on the owner, not the crew. The full permit picture, with the ordinance language we verified, is on our Jacksonville tree service page.
