Tree lawn
The tree lawn is the strip of grass between the sidewalk and the street where street trees grow. Cincinnati 311 uses the term for city-maintained public trees.
Cincinnati 311 uses the phrase for its stump removal request. The request is for removing a stump from a public tree, meaning a tree planted in the "right of way" or "tree lawn" that is city-maintained.
That means the stump of a street tree on a tree lawn is usually a city matter. Cincinnati Parks Urban Forestry requires a public tree work permit for work on or near a public tree. Other towns use different words and rules. Covington, Kentucky, describes it as the space between the sidewalk and the street and asks for a permit. Also see right-of-way. The post on who grinds the stump in front of my Cincinnati house walks through it.
