Summary

This report recommends that City Council deny the application for a permit to remove one (1) City-owned tree located at 82 Cameron Avenue. Removal has been requested to address concerns that the tree is not healthy and in conflict with a proposed driveway to provide access to an existing integral garage.

 

The subject tree is a silver maple (Acer saccharinum) tree measuring 124 cm in diameter.  Urban Forestry does not support removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.
