The clearing or removal of trees within a woodland or forest area is development and subject to these natural resource protection standards. All removal and clearing development must comply with these natural resource protection standards. Any proposed changes to woodland and forest resources are a change of use and require the issuance of a zoning permit in order to assure that required protection levels are met under the standards set forth under this chapter.
