Ordinance 2025-102-E amends Chapter 656 (Zoning Code) and Chapter 111 (Special Revenue and Trust Accounts) of the Jacksonville Ordinance Code. The primary purpose is to authorize the expenditure of Tree Protection and Related Expenses Trust Fund monies for the salaries, benefits, and equipment of city landscape architects, arborists, and urban foresters. These funds are specifically for supporting tree planting projects. Additionally, the ordinance amends permit procedures and criteria for tree removal, relocation, and replacement of protected trees, including enforcement, violations, and penalties. A significant aspect of the amendment is the waiver of tree mitigation contributions for developments or redevelopments of affordable and workforce housing for five years. This waiver is intended as an incentive to encourage the creation of affordable housing units by reducing associated tree-related costs. The ordinance also details the calculation of monetary contributions to the Tree Protection and Related Expenses Trust Fund when replacement trees cannot be planted on-site, specifying that this contribution will be waived for affordable housing projects.
