Technically, people have the right to do what they want to their property, it's just that their right isn't always right. Right?
Right. Their right isn't always right :-) Sometimes, technically, they don't have the right, as in legally. Many communities have zoning laws that don't allow the cutting of trees without a permit and sometimes those permits are hard to come by.
I am in the "Tree Business" and come across these situations. It's frustrating when trees should be removed but not permitted for the wrong reasons. I prefer to err on the side of doing less harm and I would rather see justification for removing trees than to allow anyone to remove any tree for any reason. I think the greater good should be considered along with relatively minor inconveniences to property owners.

Considering if we don't pay property taxes on our property, the Town has the right to seize it! If the Town has that right, just how many rights do we actually have?

well, yeah, if you really want to get technical, we really don't own our property, it's more like a lease.
Don't pay your property taxes...bye bye house!
Knowing my luck, I would get the neighbor who removed all the trees, and failed to pay his taxes!
Don't laugh, a customer of mine in Shirley had this next door neighbor move in, tear apart the entire house and level the lot completely and then proceeded to get forclosed on before any of the work was completed.
So now, the house is still vacant, still torn apart, no more trees, but the grass and weeds are a few feet tall. It looks hideous.
I actually remember the before, it was a nice rural tree lined block.
Sorry, bumping an old thread from almost 4 years ago, but I have to remove a bunch of healthy trees due to solar cell installation happening soon on my roof. You are going to see a lot more trees come down in neighborhoods where solar panels start going up. Any shading affects annual kWh production. No one wants to prune them every year since it affects the entire ROI of getting panels put up, you don't want any annual OPEX costs cutting into the investment.
