Tree Regulations Updates

The Burien City Council adopted new tree regulations to protect trees on private property in Burien during their October 3, 2022 meeting.

The protection of trees on private properties in Burien is important for many reasons. Studies show that trees help clean air, reduce the effects of global climate change, reduce stress, increase economic activity, increase property values, and make our community more attractive.
