Origin
Summary
This report requests that City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one (1) City-owned tree located on the road allowance adjacent to the property located at 77 Citation Drive and that City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one (1) privately owned tree located on the property at 77 Citation Drive. An applicant on behalf of the property owner is requesting removal to allow for the construction of a new dwelling.
The subject trees are a City-owned Colorado spruce (Picea pungens) tree measuring 53 cm in diameter, located on the City-owned road allowance at the front of the property and a privately owned Colorado blue spruce (Picea pungens 'Glauca') tree measuring 38 cm in diameter, located on the property itself. The Tree By-law does not support the removal of these trees as they are healthy and maintainable.
