I noticed that the shoreland protection zone allows the removal of trees that are diseased or safety hazards without counting against the 50% limit. If a large birch tree is only 6 inches from the roof, does this constitute a safety hazard? Who makes the determination? Do you need to obtain permission or permit before cutting any trees down? Does the installation of a house, septic or driveway count against the 50% limit?
