Any project that can change the visual appearance of your property or can create safety issues will need approval before starting.
New house or any large area lot clearing needs to be approved so that native trees are not mistaken for invasive trees. Without this approval your project will be stopped untill approval is done. Also, Martin County permit is required for land clearing.
Landscape work to remove invasive species and/or dead or dying foliage does not need approval unless it falls into the "clearing" catagory mentioned in the above paragraph. Trimming foliage, also, does not need approval. Here is the invasive species list found in our covenants:
Australian Pine
Brazillian Pepper
Carrotwood
Cat-claw Mimosa
Ear-leaf Acacia
Eucalyptus
Ficus Trees
Melaleuca
Silk Oak
Plants native to this area include pines, oaks, myrtle, holly, and saw palmetto.
