Centennial Tree Protection Policy

The Centennial tree protection policy requires that, during construction, the protected root zone must be barricaded, prohibiting cutting, filling, material storage, waste disposal, or impervious paving within the zone. Transplanted trees can count towards requirements if moved according to ANSI standards and backed by a two-year surety, and protected trees must receive regular care, including watering, pruning, and fertilizing as needed.
