The Ada Village Council has passed an ordinance revising the Villages requirement for any tree care companies that complete tree work within the Village. This does include work performed on private property.

If you are a property owner contracting a company to perform tree related work on your property, the tree service company must first obtain a Village Tree Care License from the Village prior to any work being done. This is to ensure that the company completing tree work within the Village has the proper liability insurance, certificate of workers' compensation and obtains the Village ordinance prohibiting tree topping and other proper tree care regulations.
