Tree Service in Pflugerville, TX
Pflugerville regulates tree preservation through UDC Subchapter 12, which applies to development sites requiring a site plan or subdivision. Trees 8 inches DBH and larger must be identified on a tree survey; mitigation credits are applied at 1:1 for 3–17-inch DBH trees and 2:1 for 18-inch-and-larger trees. Public trees on City property are separately protected under Chapter 95 Article IV. On existing residential lots with finished homes, routine pruning and removal is not typically permit-triggered. Confirm current rules with Pflugerville Planning before removal.
