Welcome to the Tree Landscaping and Irrigation review team. We assist in insuring that San Antonio not only keeps its beautiful and unique character, but also retains its environmental integrity as the City makes way for new development. These ordinances are enforced by the City of San Antonio’s Development Services Department.
The Landscape Ordinance went into effect January 9, 1994 and applies to commercial development. It was revised on January 7, 2002 and amended on March 4, 2003. The primary purpose of the ordinance is to increase the attractiveness of commercial developments and reduce their negative environmental impact while adding property value.
