Vegetation Removal Permits

 
Vegetation

The Upland/Wetland Protection Section is responsible for issuing Vegetation Removal Permits. The Section takes a pro-active approach to preserving native vegetation within unincorporated areas of Palm Beach County. Through review of site plans prior to clearing or development, native plants and specimen trees are preserved and invasive exotic vegetation is eradicated, ensuring that some functions of native ecosystems may continue after site development.
