Tree permits in Harrisonville. Harrisonville's ordinance does not require a permit for a homeowner to remove or trim a tree on their own property; it only makes owners responsible for taking down 'nuisance' trees (dead, diseased, or hazardous). Nuisance trees on city property or in the city right-of-way are the City's own responsibility to remove, not the resident's. Source: ecode360.com
