Wondering who is responsible for the tree by your curb?

November 10, 2026

Wondering who is responsible for the tree by your curb? The City of Champaign's Forestry Section plants, prunes and removes trees on City rights-of-way, while trees on private property are the owner's responsibility. With the leaves down, it is easier to see which trees along your street and yard look healthy and which may need attention. For a tree in the public right-of-way, contact City of Champaign Public Works Forestry. For a tree on your own property, Buds Tree Care Inc, an ISA Certified Arborist serving Champaign, IL, can provide a tree health evaluation or risk assessment. Questions are welcome, or you can request a visit at budstreecare.com. Source: City of Champaign, Forestry Services: https://champaignil.gov/public-works/find-a-service/forestry-services/
