PMV has many street trees that are reaching maturity, some may be either dying or dead.  To assist with the beauty and enjoyment of our neighborhood, some action may be necessary to assure these street trees are maintained. Owners are asked to determine what action should be taken with trees on their property and then take appropriate steps to either remove or treat diseased trees. 

 

The City of Sisters has established requirements for planting street trees in the ROW landscape strip, which calls for placement every 30 feet. These rules apply to PMV properties.  If new street trees are to be planted, the City Requirements should be referenced prior to the homeowner contacting the ARC for approval.  If a PMV lot has existing street trees that are in need of removal, the City of Sisters should be contacted about the removal and replacement required by City Code. If the City will allow removal and replacement, the ARC must approve the type of street tree replacement on each PMV lot.  Homeowners can use the PMV website to contact the ARC regarding PMV recommended trees and shrubs for PMV. Only 'parkway' (street) trees must be replaced according to the City of Sisters Street Tree Regulations. Other trees planted on PMV lots must only be reviewed by the ARC for approval.
