Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I need a permit for tree removal on my Kendall County property?

- For large, relatively flat prairie lots, a combination of mechanical brush clearing and rough grading is typically the most efficient approach. This quickly prepares the site for foundation work while ensuring proper long-term drainage.
