Understanding Tree Care Regulations in Buckley, WA
Trees enhance Buckley’s natural beauty, provide shade, support wildlife, and help with erosion control near Mount Rainier. As an incorporated city in Pierce County, Buckley enforces its own municipal codes (especially Chapter 19.29 for landscaping and tree protection) while Pierce County rules may apply in some cases, like larger clearings.
Street Trees: City-Property Owner Partnership
- Planting: Required in new developments (e.g., subdivisions, multifamily, commercial) per Buckley’s Development Guidelines and Public Works Standards. Often follows similar spacing to county guidelines (~1 tree per 30 linear feet, clustering allowed). Significant trees (native, ≥12″ DBH) get extra protection.
- Routine Care: Owners handle watering, fertilizing, and proper pruning (ANSI A300 standards) on private property. City manages larger work in public rights-of-way.
- What Not to Do: It’s unlawful to remove, destroy, cut, break, or injure street trees in the public right-of-way without prior written City approval. Avoid topping or severe pruning, as it weakens trees and increases storm risks.
Personal/Private Trees
Routine maintenance and removal of hazardous/diseased trees on private property are usually allowed without permits for small-scale work. However:
- Permits or reviews may be required for larger clearing (e.g., over certain thresholds—check City for details; Pierce County often requires permits for >7,000 sq ft clearing or logging).
- Significant trees and native vegetation receive protection during development to preserve landscape character.
