Forestry

The Street Department has an extensive Forestry program. This includes tree trimming, removing beehives from trees, and removal of diseased, dead, or dying trees within the City’s right-of-way. We also coordinate tree plantings and maintenance.

Tree Concerns & Complaints

Residents with specific complaints or concerns regarding a street tree growing in the City’s right-of-way may request that a tree be evaluated. Evaluations are conducted by the Street Department at no cost to the resident. If you would like a tree evaluated, please call the Street Department at 586-469-6847.

Tree Planting

The City of Mount Clemens contracts periodical tree plantings to replace trees that have been removed from the City’s right-of-way. If you would like to request that a tree be planted in front of your home between the curb and the sidewalk, please call the Street Department at 586-469-6847.

Tree Permits

Residents may also plant a tree in the right-of-way. For more information, check out our Tree Permit Form.
