Ask before you cut
Before removing any parkway tree, a Shorewood homeowner must file a Parkway Tree Program Application and get approval (Village of Shorewood). Don't buy a replacement until the application is approved.
Replacement cost-share
Approved replacement trees are reimbursed up to $150 per tree, first come, first served while yearly funds last, and the tree must come from the Village species list (same page).
Storms
Trees and branches were reported down in Shorewood during the Aug. 11, 2026 storms, among several Will County communities (Herald-News).
Yard trees
Trees behind the sidewalk are yours to maintain. Before a grind or a removal near the house, call 811 for locates and check whether branches touch your service wire, which ComEd will drop for free (ComEd).
