Origin
Summary
This report recommends that City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one (1) privately-owned tree located at 18 Glenallan Road. The application indicates the reason for removal is to address a conflict with proposed landscaping plans and pool installation. Follow up communication with the property owner identified the primary reason for removal is to address concerns over the potential for injury to people and damage to property.
The subject tree is a red oak (Quercus rubra), measuring 36 cm in diameter. The Private Tree By-law does not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.
