Tree Care & Tree Subsidy Program

The Village plants and maintains trees in the public right-of-way (ROW) throughout the Village.  The Village arranges with independent contractors for tree care.  Trees in the ROW cannot be removed without the inspection and approval of an arborist and a permit from the State of Maryland. 

Details about general tree care, requirements for the protection of trees in the ROW during construction, and ordinances related to tree protection are detailed in Chapter 9 of the Code of Ordinances – July 2016 for the Village of Martin’s Additions.  Please contact the Village Office (manager@martinsadditions.org or 301-656-4112) or The Village's Tree Supervisor Paula Goldberg (paulacgoldberg@hotmail.com)  if you have questions about trees in the ROW.
