Entrance palms: each palm on an entrance island prices on its own; HomeGuide's Florida span is $90 to $650, and height sets most of it.
Many trees, one visit: tree companies can take 10% to 25% off the per-tree price when they handle several trees at once (HomeGuide).
Pond banks and buffers: light brush clearing runs $800 to $1,800 an acre nationally in HomeGuide's brush removal guide.
ARB limits: under Florida Statute 720.3035, a review board's approval power reaches only as far as the declaration of covenants states or reasonably implies.

Palm Coast Tree Service is a no-charge first call for boards looking for a tree company to bid on association work. Tell us which areas the association maintains, roughly how many trees and palms are in them, and whether you need the bid split by area for the board.

HOA Tree Service Across an Association's Grounds

Association work splits by who owns each tree: the association's common areas, the City's land, or a resident's lot.

Entrance Palms and Medians

Entrance palms need only their fully dead fronds and flower and fruit stalks taken off. UF/IFAS advises against cutting green fronds, however neat a hard trim looks at first (palm trimming).

Common Areas and Pond Banks

Common-area trees, along shared drives, walking paths and pond banks, are the association's work. Brush along a buffer is priced by the acre or the hour, while the trees themselves are priced one by one. Removals here go through the City's permit process, since the state's arborist-documented exemption stops at single-family home lots and doesn't reach association land.

Light brush: $800 to $1,800 an acre; heavier brush mixed with trees: $1,600 to $3,000 (HomeGuide)
Brush cleanup labor: $50 to $80 an hour

Trees on the Line Between City, Association and Resident

Before the board pays for a tree, settle whose tree it is. A tree that grows and falls on a resident's lot is that owner's to remove, and a tree from City land that falls on private property is reported through Palm Coast Connect for a City inspection (storm tree rules). Check the plat and the declaration for the strip between the sidewalk and the street before you add it to a bid.

Resident Requests That Reach the ARB

Whether a resident needs the board's sign-off for a front-yard removal or a big pruning job depends on the covenants. Florida Statute 720.3035 limits what a review board can demand: its authority comes only from the declaration of covenants and the guidelines it authorizes, a denial has to be in writing and cite the specific rule, and the board can't require a building permit before it reviews a request.

Planning a Yearly Tree Cycle for the Board

Before the season
Get clearance pruning over roofs, walkways and the entrance done before June 1 (hurricane prep).
Haul-off in the scope
Palm Coast's ordinance makes the hired company remove its own debris, so it can't wait for the weekly yard waste pickup (tree debris removal).
Assessments for big old trees
A written risk assessment of the oaks over paths and parking gives the board a priority list (tree risk assessment).
