Origin
Summary
This report recommends that City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one (1) privately-owned tree located at 5 Versend Drive. The application indicates the reason for removal is the tree's proximity to the house and its declining health.
The subject tree is a Colorado blue spruce (Picea pungens) measuring 41 cm in diameter. The Private Tree By-law does not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.
