What Is an Arborist Report?
An arborist report is a professional written evaluation of trees on a property, prepared by a certified arborist, and commonly required in Florida for:

• Tree removal permits • Development and construction approvals • Insurance and storm damage claims • HOA compliance • Legal disputes and expert testimony
Florida municipalities rely on arborist reports to determine whether a tree is healthy, hazardous, protected, or eligible for removal or mitigation.
Why Arborist Reports Are Commonly Required in Florida
Florida has some of the strictest local tree protection ordinances in the country. While the state does not issue a single arborist license, cities and counties require reports prepared by qualified, certified arborists.

Common Florida-Specific Reasons:
• Hurricane and storm damage assessments • Protected native tree species • Coastal soil and root stability concerns • Mangrove and wetland regulations • Development impact reviews

Many cities will not issue a permit without a properly prepared arborist report.
