Oak Wilt

Diseased Tree Ordinance Adopted by Mayor & City Council

In February 2018 the Mayor and City Council passed an ordinance to prevent the spread of disease among the trees in the Village. Oak tree trimming is prohibited February through June to discourage oak wilt, an infectious disease which could decimate the oak tree population if introduced into the The Hills. The full text of the ordinance can be found in the documents.
