Russell Township is in Prescott and Russell, outside the City of Ottawa, so Ottawa's tree by-law does not apply here. Rules vary from one municipality to the next, so we check before taking down a tree near a road or municipal land.
Anywhere in Ontario, a tree whose trunk grows across the property line belongs to both neighbours (section 10 of the Forestry Act), and both must agree before it comes down.
In February 2025, Russell Township council received a draft urban tree by-law aimed at protecting trees inside the village limits (source). Because those rules may now apply in Embrun and Russell, we check the township's current requirements before taking down a tree in either village.
The emerald ash borer was confirmed in the United Counties of Prescott and Russell in August 2011 (source). It kills healthy ash trees as well as weak ones, and a dead ash turns brittle fast, so standing dead ash near a house, lane or road is worth taking down before it drops limbs.
