Origin
Summary
This report requests that City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one privately owned tree located at 24 Greenfield Drive. The application indicates the reason for removal is to address concerns that the tree creates too much shade, thereby preventing a garden or grass to grow.
The subject tree is a honey locust tree (Gleditsia triacanthos), measuring 51 cm in diameter. The Tree By-laws do not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.
