A Routine Vegetation Management Permit is required for tree removal or vegetation management within shorelines, critical areas or buffers and:

1. The removal of landmark trees.  A landmark tree is defined as a tree with a DSH of 24" or greater, except for Big Leak Maples, Black Cottonwoods, and Red Alder trees, which qualify as landmark trees with a caliper of 30" or greater.
2. The removal of more than two significant trees within a year. A significant tree is defined as a tree with a DSH of at least 6", except for alder and cottonwood trees, which qualify as significant with a DSH of 8" or greater.

A Routine Vegetation Management Permit is not required for the following activities:

• Removal of up to 3 high risk trees within a year time period, provided no landmark trees are proposed for removal.
• Removal of 2 significant tree within a year time period, provided the removal is conducted in accordance with the following requirements:

Many parts of Renton are regulated under the city’s Environmentally Critical Areas (ECA) code, including steep slopes, landslide hazard areas, wetlands, streams, and shoreline buffers. If your tree is located in or near one of these areas, removal is governed by land-use and environmental regulations — not just the city’s tree ordinance.

This means you may need:

• A Critical Areas Permit
• A steep slope or wetland review
• An ISA-Certified Arborist repor
• A tree risk assessment (TRAQ)
• A replanting or mitigation plan

Removing a tree in a Renton ECA without approval can result in stop-work orders, fines, and forced replanting, even if the tree is hazardous.
