Summary

This report recommends that City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one (1) privately owned tree located on the boundary of the properties located at 56 Badgerow Avenue and 58 Badgerow Avenue. The application indicates the reason for removal is to address concerns that the tree is causing damage to the fence located along the boundary between the two properties.

 

The subject tree is a silver maple (Acer saccharinum), measuring 59 cm in diameter. The Private Tree By-law does not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.
