2026 Madison Pruning Permit District 10 Area

2026 MGE Cycle

Hola!

Madison Gas and Electric Company (MGE) will be performing line clearance tree pruning in District 10 this year. As part of this process:

• MGE applies for a permit to prune City of Madison-owned trees within the public right-of-way of any street, alley, highway, or greenway.
• MGE Forestry works with the City Forester and the City of Madison Streets Division on a yearly plan to prevent over-pruning of City-owned trees.

Board of Public Works

Mark your calendar! MGE's 2026 plan for pruning trees on the public rights-of-way permits discussion:

• Board of Public Works
• Wednesday, January 28, 2026
• 4:30 P.M., via virtual meeting

District 10 area map

Check out this map for the areas affected by the 2026 plan.

A quick map key:

• Salmon-colored polygons are planned areas in your district where we will be pruning.
• Purple-colored polygons are areas in your district where we will be pruning in correlation with MGE construction projects.
• Thick black and grey lines = highest voltage (feeds entire neighborhood).
• Blue, Red, Green line = high voltage (feeds blocks of houses).

The 2025 permit was approved last year, and the MGE crew has been working in the area of Britta Parkway and Seminole this week.
