Street and Park Trees


The Village of Bellevue Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department maintains the Village’s Street and Park trees. 

Street Tree Plantings:

Current Resident Tree Plantings:  The Village of Bellevue offers homeowners the option of purchasing trees through the Village for planting in the right-of-way adjacent to their property, often at a significantly lower cost than purchasing and having a tree planted on your own.  Trees purchased may only be planted in the Village right-of-way and are guaranteed for 2 years when cared for properly as outlined prior to purchase.  For more information, please click on the Resident Tree Planting Program page.  

New Development Tree Plantings:  The Village requirements for new development street trees are as follows:  The Village shall require street trees for all new subdivisions in the Village. A linear curb fee shall be charged per a developer agreement, collected and placed in an escrow account for trees. The fee shall be determined each year and approved by resolution. After occupancy permits have been issued for approximately 70% of the houses in the development, trees shall be selected and planted in the right-of-way by the Village. The number and location of each tree, it's species, and size of stock are to be determined by the Village Forester. 

The Village also oversees tree plantings and maintenance of street trees during street reconstruction.
