The Metairie Ridge Tree Protection District (MRTPD) is a designated area in Jefferson Parish that protects large, historic, and ecologically important trees, especially mature live oaks. If you are building or renovating within this district, there are specific rules that apply to tree removal and construction near protected trees. Bayou Tree Service is familiar with MRTPD requirements and can help you navigate permits, inspections, and protection plans so your project stays compliant.
