On the agenda

As the city filed it

This report requests that City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one privately owned tree located at 294 Fairlawn Avenue. The application indicates that the reason for removal is to address concerns that the tree's sap and root system have caused substantial damage to the owner's home and yard, as well as adjacent homes. The subject tree is a Norway spruce (Picea abies), measuring 76 cm in diameter. The Tree By-laws do not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.

Staff recommended
