As the city filed it

This report requests that North York Community Council deny the request for a permit to remove one City-owned tree located at 110 Caines Avenue. The applicant indicates the reason for requesting removal of the tree is due to a construction conflict with the driveway width on the City-owned right-of-way. The red oak tree (Quercus rubra) measures 23 centimeters in diameter. The City's Tree By-laws do not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.
