Summary: This Tip provides information about the tree public notice (notice) requirements in the Seattle Municipal Code (SMC 25.11) chapter for Tree Protection and guidance for how to create and post a notice. This notice is required in all zoning districts subject to Seattle’s tree protection regulations. For commercial tree work that received a permit vested to tree requirements before April 1, 2023, you need to create your own notice, using the template included in this Tip, to post on-site three days before conducting the work.
