Why Lincoln Park
What we see on the ground
Officially, the town is the Borough of Lincoln Park.
Lincoln Park requires a permit for trees 6 inches or more in diameter at breast height.
Replacement is tiered by size: Category 1 (6–12.99") replants 1 tree, Category 2 (13–22.99") replants 2, Category 3 (23–32.99") replants 3, and Category 4 (33"+) replants 4 — each a minimum 1.5-inch caliper, planted within 12 months and monitored for 2 years.
If in-kind replanting isn't feasible, the fee is capped at $500 per tree, with a $200 per tree minimum.
Removing fewer than 4 trees (Categories 1–3) per lot within 5 years is exempt, along with tree farms, nurseries, orchards, approved forest stewardship properties, and hazard trees (which only need prior notification, not a permit). Applications go to the Construction Office, and the enforcement official must approve or deny within 14 calendar days.
Local rules change. Confirm the current details with the township before work starts.
