The City of Grande Prairie reminds residents to confirm their property lines before trimming, planting or removing any trees near their homes.
A strip of City-owned land—known as the boulevard—runs along the front and sometimes the side of most properties. Trees growing in this area are public trees, owned and maintained by the City. Work on these trees, including pruning or removal, should only be carried out by City staff.
Trees on private land remain the responsibility of the property owner. The City does not provide pruning, removal or clean-up services for privately owned trees. Before beginning any landscaping project, residents are encouraged to review their Real Property Report or contact the City for help confirming property lines.
If you are concerned about the condition of a tree on the boulevard or unsure who is responsible for its care, contact AccessGP by dialling 311 or emailing info@cityofgp.com.
