The City requires tree contractors to be licensed, insured and in possession of a city issued permit to do work in Deephaven. 

These requirements are intended for your protection.  Accidents can and do happen during tree removal or trimming.  Trees can fall on your house, your neighbor's property or in the the street while people or cars are passing by.  Suddenly, a simple tree-trimming project can become a legal headache.
