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 171 John Street. The application indicates the reason for removal is due to concerns that the tree is destabilized due to the impact of landscaping work near the tree's roots. The subject tree is a Colorado blue spruce tree (Picea pungens), measuring 51.5 cm in diameter. The Tree By-laws do not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.

Staff recommended

The Acting Director of Urban Forestry recommends that: 1. City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one privately owned tree located at 171 John Street.
