On streets where the parkway trees belong to the Town and the live oaks stand thirty feet apart, tree work is half craft, half protocol. Texas Tree Tops does both: careful cuts, and the Town’s rules known before the trailer parks on Beverly Drive.
Share the tree location in Highland Park, urgency, access limits, nearby structures, and cleanup needs.
Highland Park’s canopy is part of the address. Armstrong Parkway was literally laid out around a pecan tree, the live oaks along the Beverly Drive corridor were planted close enough to touch, and the Town, not an HOA, holds authority over every tree in a parkway or easement. The work reflects that: private-side removals and pruning rigged over pools and gardens that took decades to grow, clearance trimming kept to the Town’s sidewalk and street standards, and a hard line drawn at the parkway, where the tree is the Town’s and touching it without authorization is not an option. On lots this close together, oak wilt discipline matters doubly, because connected live oak roots do not respect property lines.
Highland Park’s tree ordinance governs public trees, parkways, and easements — no removal permit requirement was found in the published code for a healthy tree fully on private property. Parkway trees belong to the Town, and excavating or building a drive within 10 feet of a public tree requires a written Town permit.

Tree and parkway authority in Highland Park rests with the Town’s Park Department and Town Council rather than homeowner associations — the Town’s own code compliance rules are the review layer that actually exists here.
Highland Park sits on Blackland Prairie expansive clay that swells wet and shrinks dry, stressing roots near older homes. The town’s tree heritage runs deep — Armstrong Parkway was designed around the famous Big Pecan Tree, whose 1927 Christmas lighting is the oldest such tradition in Dallas County.
Live oaks — a signature Park Cities street tree — spread oak wilt through connected roots at about 75 feet per year, which matters on Highland Park’s closely planted lots. Do not prune oaks February 1 through June 30, and paint every oak wound immediately.
