(December 8, 2017) Report from the Director, Urban Forestry, Parks, Forestry and Recreation

Summary

This report recommends that City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one (1) City-owned tree adjacent to the property at 5 Chieftain Crescent. The application indicates the reason removal has been requested is to address concerns that the tree is not healthy and is in conflict with a proposed driveway.

 

The subject tree is a Norway maple (Acer platanoides) measuring 45 cm in diameter. The Street Tree By-law does not support removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.
