LINKS As residents of the Tampa Bay Area, we are fortunate to live in a region where codes to protect native trees are progressive. This does, however come at a cost. Each municipality, city, and/or county is charged with enforcing their own set of ordinances. Some require the property owner to acquire the proper permit, while others require the Arborist to do so. As such, here at Pete & Ron's Tree Service, we recommend that you contact your local municipality concerning permitting.
