Shoreline Vegetation Removal

Shoreline Vegetation Removal

 

Good practices in shoreline management will help to preserve the quality of lake Minnetonka, this great natural resource, for many generations to come.    The code link below pertains to clearing; pruning and trimming of live trees and vegetation within shore and bluff impact zones.

 

           “Trees greater than 6 inches in diameter measured 2 feet above the ground may not be removed without a permit.”

 

         “Intensive vegetation clearing within the shore and bluff impact zones and on steep slopes in not allowed without a permit”

 

 

 Please make sure that your contracted workers and all subcontractors are also aware of these regulations.  If you have any questions or comments please call City Hall at 952-471-8878.
