On the agenda

As the city filed it

This report requests that North York Community Council deny the request for a permit to remove one privately owned tree in a Ravine-protected area, located at 124 Sandringham Drive. The tree is protected under the Ravine and Natural Feature Protection bylaw as this property is located within the West Don River Valley. The applicant indicates the reason for requesting removal of the tree is because the tree is showing signs of decline; and to address an uneven walkway allegedly caused by the tree's roots.

The honey locust tree (Gleditsia triacanthos) measures 63 centimetres in diameter. The City's Tree By-laws do not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable. The permit was denied, and the applicant is appealing the decision. 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 denial of a permit of a tree protected under the by-laws.

Staff recommended

The Acting Director of Urban Forestry, Parks, Forestry and Recreation recommends that: 1. North York Community Council deny the request for a permit to remove one tree in a Ravine-protected area, located at 124 Sandringham Drive.
