A.
Repair or replacement of damaged trees. In the event a street tree
is damaged, the Township may charge for repairs or replacement of

damaged during the emergency repair or maintenance of utilities.

In the event the property owner neglects or refuses to remove trees and branches as required in this section, within the time specified when notified in writing, the Township may perform such work at the owner's expense and obtain costs thereof as specified in §§ 201-15 and 201-17 of this article.
A.
Standards for removal of trees.
(1)
When, in the judgment of the Commission or the Enforcement Official, sufficient disease, insect damage, decay or other damage exists so as to create a threat to pedestrians or the motoring public, the Enforcement Official may, upon 30 days' written notice, require a property owner to cut and remove such trees within the Township under regulations prescribed by this article. In the event the property owner neglects or refuses to remove trees as required in this section, within the time specified when notified in writing, the Township may perform such work at the owner's expense and obtain costs thereof as specified in §§ 201-15 and 201-17 of this article.
(2)
Nondiseased trees or those not infested by damaging insects shall
not be removed unless, in the judgment of the Commission, one or more
of the following criteria exists:
(a)
Where underground utilities are being installed, or repaired,
and no other alternative exists such as tunneling, sleeving, or relocation,
and the tree will sustain substantial damage so as to not survive.
(b)
For traffic safety purposes, to include sight distance and traffic
sign visibility, if pruning cannot eliminate the problem.
(c)
During repair of damaged sidewalks, consideration shall be given
to variations in widths of pavement to allow for tree growth. In those
cases where major root damage would be incurred when replacing pavement
so as to irreparably damage a tree, relocation of the sidewalk may
be considered.
(d)
Removal of trees under overhead utilities will be considered
if pruning will consist of removal of 2/3 or more of the crown (topping),
thereby causing irreparable damage to the tree. A tree removed under
such circumstances shall be replaced with a tree from the small tree
list.
B.
Removal of fallen trees and parts of trees. In the event a shade tree or its parts are felled by storm or other accident, the tree shall be removed from the right-of-way of a street by the Township without charge. Property owners will be responsible for any removal or cleanup not within the right-of-way, as well as tree replacement if the damaged tree was a street tree within the right-of-way. In the event the property owner neglects or refuses to remove trees and branches as required in this section, within the time specified when notified in writing, the Township may perform such work at the owner's expense and obtain costs thereof as specified in § 201-17 of this article.
C.
Removal of tree stumps. As street trees are removed for various reasons,
the stump remaining shall be removed to a point not less than six
inches below the grade of the tree lawn from where it is being removed.
If the replacement tree is to be planted in the same location, the
stump shall be removed to accommodate the replacement tree.
No person shall break, injure, mutilate, kill, destroy, set
fire to, or allow fire to burn any shade tree. No person shall allow
any toxic chemical, liquid or solid, to empty, drain, or seep into
the root system of shade trees.
[Amended 3-10-2020 by Ord. No. 2020-01]
It is recommended that any contractor utilized for tree work
in Derry Township is an ISA certified arborist and possesses any licensing
required by local, state, or federal regulations.
The Commission may grant a deviation of the requirements of
one or more provisions of this article if the literal enforcement
will exact undue hardship because of peculiar conditions pertaining
to the land in question, provided that such modification will not
be contrary to the public interest and that the purpose and intent
of this article are observed. All requests for a deviation shall be
in writing and shall state in full the grounds and facts of unreasonableness
or hardship upon which the request is based, the provision or provisions
of the Ordinance involved, and the minimum modification or alternative
design necessary to lessen the unreasonableness or hardship. If the

herein upon the failure of the property owner to comply with a notice
issued by the Township Enforcement Official shall be due and payable
30 days after invoice by the Township to the property owner. If the
property owner does not pay for the cost within 30 days, the cost
shall be considered an assessment against the property and the Township
Solicitor may file a lien against the property to ensure payment as
may be provided by law or may file an action in assumpsit for the
same purpose.

the Township shall be paid by the Township unless the maintenance
and caring for the tree is the responsibility of the property owner

of such fine or cost, to imprisonment for a period of time not to
exceed 30 days, in accordance with Section 1601(c.1)(2) of the Second

removal of healthy shade trees, shall be subject to civil penalties
not to exceed $600 per occurrence. In addition to or in lieu of civil
actions before a district justice, the Township may enforce this article
in equity. In any case where a penalty for violation of this article
has not been timely paid and the person upon whom the penalty was
imposed is found to have been liable in civil proceedings, the violator
shall be liable for additional daily penalties for continuing violations,
plus court costs and attorney's fees incurred by the Township
in enforcement proceedings. The foregoing is in accordance with Section

time in accordance with the procedures established by law.
