Our statutory road association is within a shoreline zoning area due to a pond. We have trees and brush within our right of way of our roads that need to be removed or trimmed. Does anyone's association have a policy for the rules and procedures to remove them? Some of them also abut between our private roads and  property owners land too. 

Our association has a tree Policy. We obtained a surveyor to distinguish the boundary lines of the right of ways and property owners land. Then we researched tree removal policies with our town and DEP due to shoreland zones. The regulatory requirements are mind numbing. Tree branches that are over the road that are too low we have the right to trim them as long as they do not kill the tree. We do have to obtain a permit when removing a tree when it's within the shoreland zone and can not grind the stump (there's some other technical info about limits to grinding stumps). We do require permission by the owner for the association to remove the tree because each owner owns up to the middle of the road. In terms of liability, you'll have to consult your insurance agent. 

Yes, I would be glad to share it, just click on my name as a member to reply to me privately. I'd rather share it with you directly than to post it on our public website.
