A Pensacola lawsuit could be the first test case for a new Florida law that prevents local governments from regulating tree trimming or removal trees — even “heritage” trees — on residential property. The city of Pensacola is suing the owners of a vacant lot to stop the removal of a heritage tree. Property owners Larry and Ellen Vickery started the process to build a home on a vacant lot at 605 N. Spring St. in the North Hill neighborhood and wanted to remove a live oak tree at the back of the lot to build their planned house.
