On the agenda
As the city filed it
This report requests that Etobicoke York Community Council deny the request for a permit to remove two City-owned trees located at 5 Verona Avenue. The applicant indicates the reason for requesting removal of the trees is due to a conflict with the construction of a new home and driveway. The two Manitoba maple trees, Acer negundo, in question measure 60 cm and 93 cm in diameter. The City's Tree By-laws do not support the removal of these trees as they are maintainable.
