Tree TrimmingThe City of Rock Falls tree trimming methods and polices.

Method of Trimming: The department uses the lateral or natural tree

trimming methods. In this method, limbs are removed at their nearest main

branch, and not trimmed in length. The Department will not “top” a tree

unless it is absolutely necessary. The Department will not “round” trees.

Lateral tree trimming has been endorsed by experts, including the Arbor

Day Foundation, as the best method to trim trees. Although the appearance

of the tree can be unusual after the initial trim, the appearance quickly

improves with time and growing seasons.

Clearance Distances: The department trims all trees to a minimum of nine

feet from the primary (top) conductors. Trees that overhang the system are

trimmed as the worker can reach with the equipment on site.

Tree Removal: If a tree is obviously diseased, dying or dead and is on public

property, the department will remove the tree. If the tree is on private

property the property owner will have the tree remove at his expense.

Trimming Trees on Private Property: There are two conditions where the

department will trim a tree that is located on private property.

If the tree violates the nine-foot clearance, the department will trim to

that clearance. It is not possible to notify property owners of this action.

If a property owner has a tree that is dangerously close to the power lines,

the department will aid in the removal and/or trimming of that tree. this is

done for safety reasons. Persons in this situation should contact the


5/6

.

Limbs on Service Drops: The department does not maintain clearance on

limbs on or over the service drop on private property. The property owner is

responsible for the trees on his property. At the owners request, the

department will remove a service drop to allow an owner to trim or remove

a tree adjacent to it. This service is provided during business hours only at

no charge. Please contact the department for further information.

Topping or Tipping: The department will not top, tip or round a tree, these

techniques in our view lead to many cut between nodes, encouragement of

many sprouts, and cause for more trimming later on.
