Local Rules & Permits

Tree Removal Rules In Las Colinas, Irving

Two layers apply in Las Colinas. City of Irving code exempts occupied single-family homes from its tree permit, though development and teardown sites need one. Separately, the Las Colinas Association — the mandatory master association for all deed-restricted property in the 12,000-acre development — requires plan submission before any exterior construction or improvements, including landscaping.

  • LCA membership is automatic on purchase of deed-restricted Las Colinas property
  • Plans must be submitted to the Architectural Control Committee before exterior work, including landscaping
  • All tree selections must be ACC-approved before installation, from an approved list of exactly 8 species
  • City of Irving rules apply on top: protected trees on regulated property need an Earthwork + Tree Removal Permit

HOA & Review Boards

The Las Colinas Association, created by the master declaration filed August 22, 1973, processes over 1,000 plan submissions annually through its Architectural Control Committee. Village-level sub-HOAs sit underneath it — Hackberry Creek Village and Estates, Cottonwood Valley, Fairway Vista, Fox Glen, Lakes of Las Colinas — with their own additional standards. Golf course lots must keep one front and two back-yard trees from the approved list.

Native Trees & Soil In Las Colinas, Irving

Las Colinas is a 12,000-acre master-planned development around Lake Carolyn (87 acres), dozens of small lakes, and the Mandalay Canal — trees here grow beside engineered lakes, seawalls, and DCURD-managed flood-control infrastructure, which changes removal logistics and root considerations. The signature palette is fixed by the LCA's 8-species list: live oak, red oak, cedar elm, bald cypress, Chinese pistachio, October Glory maple, southern magnolia, and sweetgum, all on Blackland Prairie expansive clay.

Las Colinas, Irving Oak Pruning Window

Oak wilt is confirmed in Dallas County, and live oak and red oak are two of only eight species on the LCA's approved tree list — so oak density in the villages is by design, and live oaks pass the fungus through connected roots at about 75 feet per year. No oak pruning February 1 through June 30, and paint every cut immediately.

Two layers apply. City of Irving code exempts occupied single-family homes from its tree permit, though protected trees on development or teardown sites need one. Separately, the Las Colinas Association requires plan submission before exterior improvements including landscaping — call LCA Plan Review before major tree work, and check the city's current code alongside it.

No. The Las Colinas Association's ACC guidelines say all tree selections must be approved before installation, and required trees must come from an approved list of just eight species — live oak, red oak, cedar elm, bald cypress, Chinese pistachio, October Glory maple, southern magnolia, and sweetgum — at 4-inch caliper minimum. Golf course lots need three required trees.

Not between February 1 and June 30 — the oak wilt transmission window in North Texas. Live oak and red oak are two of the eight approved LCA species, so the villages are dense with exactly the trees oak wilt targets; live oaks pass the fungus through connected roots at about 75 feet per year. Every oak cut gets painted immediately, year-round.

DCURD — the Dallas County Utility and Reclamation District, a special-law district the Legislature created in 1983 — operates Las Colinas's flood control, drainage, lakes, and canal infrastructure, including Lake Carolyn. Tree work near seawalls, canal walkways, and drainage easements deserves crews who plan around that infrastructure rather than over it.

Yes. Texas Tree Tops provides emergency tree service for storm damage, fallen trees, split trunks, blocked driveways, and hazardous limbs in Las Colinas, Irving and nearby DFW communities.
