How Do I Adopt-A-Landscape?

  1. Decide on the general location you want.

  2. Discuss the location, project and Context Sensitive Solutions involvement (MDOT Form 3727) with your local MDOT Transportation Service Center (TSC) Construction Permit Agent. Further review and consideration by other individuals and agencies may also be required.

  3. Submit a completed Individual Application & Permit-Use of State Trunkline Right of Way, (MDOT Form 2205), acceptance letters of activity from adjacent property owner(s), and the municipality or jurisdiction involved, to your TSC Construction Permit Agent. After the completed application has been submitted to MDOT, additional information will be required.

    • a. If you are hiring a contractor, you must list the name of the contractor on your permit application (MDOT Form 2205).
    • b. If your adoption includes planting or vegetation control, you will be required to submit work plans and schedules along with your application. Handouts or brochures are available from your TSC Construction Permit Agent and on the MDOT Web site with instructions for preparing plans/schedules.

  4. Wait for your issued permit (signaling your acceptance into the program) to arrive in the mail. This may take several weeks.

  5. Make sure that you understand and can conform to all of the provisions listed in your Individual Application & Permit-Use of State Trunkline Right of Way, (MDOT Form 2205) Permit Special Provisions BEFORE beginning work.
