Origin
Summary
This report recommends that City Council deny the application for a permit to remove one (1) privately-owned tree located at 231 Lonsmount Drive. The application states that the area around the tree has been landscaped. The applicant has indicated that this may result in a decline in the health of the tree and requests a permit for removal.
The subject tree is a sugar maple (Acer saccharum), measuring 51 cm in diameter. The Tree By-law does not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable
