Tree felling

Tree felling

Citizens must obtain a certificate of authorization to cut down a tree on their property. Authorization is only granted under very specific conditions and any tree cut down must be replaced if space allows. To obtain a certificate, please send your application form to info@senneville.ca

As well, tree pruning and trimming on private property requires a certificate of authorization and must be performed by a recognized arborist registered with the municipality of Senneville.  A pruning or felling certificate costs $25 and is valid for three months. Beyond this duration, the certificate can be extended for an additional $12.50.

Moreover, a report from a professional may be requested if the residence is located on the eco-territory. Since zoning by-laws include a mandatory percentage of tree conservation, planting may be imposed to respect the prescribed tree cover.
