I am, not sure I understood.

Even if there was existing landscaping, changing it requires ARC approval (most conditions).

I got ARC approval for a hedge around the power box in my front yard. Even with ARC approval I had to remove it when I found out from the electric provider at that time that it did not meet their requirements for the safety of their workers. So, we changed it to meet both ARC and Power Company approvals. Not a big deal.

So, anyway. Changes that are to "larger" trees and are visible have to get approval is my understanding.
