Request for Tree Removal - 999 St. Clarens Avenue

(Davenport)

 

The Toronto Community Council recommends that the request for tree removal at

999 St. Clarens Avenue be denied.

 

The Toronto Community Council submits the following report (July 31,1997) from the Commissioner of Community Services:

 

Origin: Commissioner of Community Services (p:\1997\ug\cms\prk\cs970118.prk) - pm

 

Subject: 999 St. Clarens Avenue - Request for Tree Removal (Ward 12)

 

Recommendation:

 

That this request for tree removal be denied

 

Comments:

 

I have received a request from Mr. Antonio Pussar, 999 St. Clarens Avenue, Toronto, Ontario,

M6H 3X8, for the removal of a City owned tree. Mr. Pussar wishes to have this tree removed as he is concerned with the constant falling of seeds from this tree clogging his eavestrough and ruining the new roof.

The tree in question is a 67 cm diameter Norway maple which stands in good condition and is valued at $4,231.20. My staff inspected the tree on July 17, 1997 and found that all the branches are well clear of the house and the tree is well pruned. The tree was pruned by my staff on June 19, 1997.

 

Since this tree is not structurally unsound, dead or dying, I recommend that the request for tree removal be denied.

 

However, should your Committee approve tree removal, I recommend that the applicant pay all costs involved; this includes the tree value of $4,231.20, the removal costs of $775.60, and the costs to plant a replacement, $474.91, for a total of $5,481.71.
