City-Owned Tree Maintenance

Tree Trimming, Pruning Schedule & Information  

The City of University City owns thousands of trees throughout the City. To properly care for these trees in our neighborhoods, we perform annual trimming and pruning.  We need your help to perform this task safely and as quickly as possible.
