The Arvada tree protection policy requires that tree protection measures be implemented during construction. Barriers, such as orange fencing, must be placed at least six feet or one foot per inch of tree diameter from the trunk, and no storage or harmful activities are allowed within this zone. Additional precautions include prohibiting damaging attachments, using ribboning for large areas, and boring at least 24 inches below the root system for underground installations.
