Origin
Summary
This report requests that City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one City-owned tree located at 1380 Queen Street West. The application indicates the reason for removal is due to concerns that the tree's roots may damage water and sprinkler service lines in the future, potentially causing service or safety issues.
The subject tree is a ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba) measuring 12 cm in diameter. The Tree By-laws do not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.
