Which department is responsible for cutting down trees in the community?

If the trees in the residential area are cut down by the property, the owner can report to the neighborhood Committee and the administrative department of urban greening. According to the law, the greening of urban public green space, scenic woodland, protective green space, street trees and trunk road green belts is managed by the urban greening administrative department.

When the greening of the residential area is suddenly eradicated in a large area, the owner can first urge the industry Committee or the property management company to report the case and ask the public security organ to help find out the facts. The large-scale eradication of residential greening has infringed on the legitimate rights and interests of owners. After finding out the facts, the owners' committee or the owners can negotiate with the actor to solve the problem; If negotiation fails, evidence such as photos, audio recordings and videos can be collected to bring a lawsuit to the court, requiring the perpetrator to restore the original state and compensate for the losses.

Roads, green spaces and other public facilities within the building division are owned by the owners. Changing the use of some parts should be decided by the owner. According to the description, the greening of the community was suddenly eradicated in a large area. If the greening is eradicated without the consent of the owners who voted and more than three-quarters of the owners who voted, then this behavior violates the legitimate rights and interests of the owners of the community.

According to the Regulations on Property Management, the property management company shall maintain and manage the public areas of the community and maintain the environmental sanitation and related order of the community in accordance with the property service contract. However, the property company didn't give any explanation for the behavior that the greening was eradicated, saying that it didn't know and didn't fulfill its corresponding management obligations.
