Does your tree work need a permit?

Answer a few questions about one Portland property and tree. TreeCheck verifies available official property records and Heritage Tree data when you confirm a tree location.

1. Verify the property

A Portland mailing address alone is not enough. We check published PortlandMaps records when available.

Property address

I have independently confirmed this property is inside City of Portland jurisdiction.

2. Describe the work

Tell us where the tree is and whether another City process may apply.

Tree position

Other property restriction

I checked; no concernOne applies or may applyI have not checked

3. Check the selected tree for Heritage status

An address cannot identify a specific tree. Confirm a point at the tree, then TreeCheck checks the City’s live Heritage Tree map within 25 feet.

LatitudeLongitude

I positioned or confirmed these coordinates at the tree, not merely at the property address.
