72 Wardell Street - Application to Remove a Private Tree

Further, under the City of Toronto's Official Plan Amendment 403(b)iv, the development of laneway suites should not result in the injury or removal of a healthy tree protected under Municipal Code 813. City Council has directed the General Manager of Parks, Forestry and Recreation to refuse, at the General Manager's discretion, a permit to injure or destroy a healthy tree protected under Municipal Code Chapter 813, received as part of an application to construct a laneway suite. Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision as to whether a permit may be issued when an applicant wishes to appeal the City's decision to deny a tree permit.
