It’s about cutting trees on the site.
The presence of ordinary trees in a summer cottage can sometimes bring a lot of problems to the owner, as well as become an object of a legal dilemma. So, if you suddenly want to cut them down, you can quite easily get a fine. This is because these actions are best coordinated with the forestry or the local administration. Otherwise, every wrong step will be punishable by a fine, says Alexey Petropolsky, CEO of Urvista law firm, in an interview with the agency. .
“It should be remembered if your site is adjacent to the forest fund. In this case, the cutting of trees must be coordinated with the forestry. Even some villages are in the forest fund. The amount of the fine for cutting down trees without the approval of local authorities varies from region to region. For example, in Moscow it can reach 4,5 thousand rubles (Article 4.19 of the Administrative Code of Moscow), ”the expert explained.
However, there is another side to the coin. If you do not cut down a tree that threatens the life and health of others, it can also be held responsible. For example, if it fell on a car parked in a neighboring area, or, even worse, on a person.
You will need to compensate for all the damage caused for not protecting others from this tree. Therefore, if the need for a saw cut is still present, it is necessary to agree on this.
Thus, you are responsible for all the trees that grow on your site, ”concluded the lawyer.
By the way, recently summer residents were reminded of another equally important aspect that can bring about a fine. So, summer residents are not at all prohibited from keeping animals on their site, such as chickens, sheep, pigs, etc. However, if you use them for profit, you can be seriously fined.
