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 on the boundary line between 204 Douglas Drive and 64 St Andrews Gardens. The application indicates the reason for removal is due to concerns that the tree's roots are causing structural damage to the hardscape; sewage pipes and foundation of 64 St Andrews Gardens; the main stem is in conflict with a fence; there is potential for large branch failure due to included bark; and that falling walnuts make the backyard unusable from June to October.
