Bronxville raises landscaper license fee to $150 plus $30 per vehicle
Summary
Trustees approved an increase in the gardener/landscaper annual license to $150 plus $30 per vehicle to improve enforcement and accountability; officials cited comparables in neighboring towns.
Board members reviewed a proposed update to the village code requiring landscapers doing business in Bronxville to hold an annual license and to register vehicles. The new structure replaces a longstanding $15 per‑contractor fee with a $150 annual license plus $30 per vehicle; an example offered was $180 for a single truck with the plate entered into an online database for enforcement.
Officials said the change is intended to improve accountability, help police identify unlicensed operators and discourage large fleets from operating without registration; trustees referenced comparable fees in Tarrytown and Scarsdale during discussion and approved the fee changes by voice vote.
