Richland, MI: Trees on the Gull Lake Shore

Richland is a Kalamazoo County village of about 950 at the south end of Gull Lake, twenty-three minutes northwest of Battle Creek. The lake covers 2,030 acres of clear kettle water up to 110 feet deep, mostly in Kalamazoo County with its north tip in Barry. Richland was thriving by the 1830s and once vied for county seat, but with no stream for power it never industrialized, and it filled in with lake homes in the 1980s and 1990s.

The old village blocks have sugar maples and bur oaks past a century; the shore has narrow lots, steep banks, big white oaks and cottonwoods, and no room to drop anything.

Why a Battle Creek Crew Comes to Richland

What We Bring to Richland

Twenty-Three Minutes Northwest

Richland is on our M-89 run through Level Park, paired with Hickory Corners work around the lake, with no trip charge.

Lake-Lot Rigging

Gull Lake lots are narrow and steep, with a roof, a dock and a neighbor all around. Trees come down from the top on ropes, and the chip truck waits up on the road.

Old-Village Oaks and Maples

Bur oaks and sugar maples on Richland's first blocks are the township's oldest trees. Hazard limbs go first; removal only if a trunk or root plate has failed.

Richland Village Code

Richland sets its own village rules. A tree over a village street means a quick check with the village office before work.

Asked Around Richland

Is a permit required to take down a tree in Richland?

Not for a tree standing wholly on your own lot. Battle Creek's curb-lawn permit and forestry license stop at the city line; Richland answers to its own local ordinances, as noted above. Storm limbs get chipped or hauled, and outside city and village limits you check whether a burn permit is needed that day. More on our permits page.

How soon can you get to Richland?

A limb on the roof gets a same-day or next-day answer at (269) 555-0142. Routine jobs are usually priced within days and finished within two weeks, and after a storm Richland keeps its place in line.
