 the Policy, permission may be given by the City when “Other ways and means to avoid the removal of the tree have been fully and reasonable considered for implementation”. If so, then if “it prevents development and construction”, permission may be given. I
 should note here that we have two types of trees along our streets on City land (Engineering road allowance or right of ways).

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial Narrow","sans-serif";color:#595959">Note: While our Policy refers to “trees located on City lands” we usually will only review remnant trees for removal. It is very rare we will permit the removal of a City
 inventoried tree to accommodate construction. City trees are usually suitable species planted in an appropriate location compared to remnant trees and have been and are maintained as part of a preventative maintenance (PM) program, therefore representing a
 greater investment and value to the City. Requests such as air spading, hydro-vaccing, horizontal drilling and tree transplanting are common suggestions from staff before considering the removal of a City tree.   <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial Narrow","sans-serif";color:#595959">When determining compensation for lost canopy, we generally seek full value of the tree by using the CTLA TFM. To ensure we provide consistency with our evaluations, only
 ISA certified staff with Arboriculture Canada’s Tree Appraisal Qualification are eligible to provide this service. If the tree is undersized,  then a 1:1 or 2:1 compensation is implemented. The amount requested is based on an average wholesale purchase cost
 of a 5cm tree, installation and 2 years of maintenance. Once we have received the requested funds, we then provide a letter of authorization to remove the tree at the requestor’s expense. The letter states the requirements (qualifications and insurance) needed
 for a contractor to remove a tree from City land. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial Narrow","sans-serif";color:#595959">We are 100% successful in receiving requested compensation funds from developers primarily due to our relationship with the City’s Building Division’s - Trees and Landscape
 Section. Since all proponents require inspections to proceed through a development process, we can hold off on issuing a letter of authorization or in cases where a tree may have been removed of damaged without the City’s permission,</span>
<span style="font-family:"Arial Narrow","sans-serif";color:#595959">we can place a ‘stop inspection’</span>
<span style="font-family:"Arial Narrow","sans-serif";color:#595959">until the funds have been secured.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial Narrow","sans-serif";color:#595959">Interestingly, our greatest challenge is not so much with the trees requested for removal but rather those deemed for retention. While we do have guidelines in place to
 ensure trees are protected during construction, we still see a number of declining and stressed trees following construction. We recognized this in a recent planning meeting and hope to improve this deficiency this year.   <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello fellow CANUFNET members,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am looking to compile some basic information about municipalities which currently request
<u>compensation for the removal of municipally-owned trees</u> (such as street trees), particularly in relation to development on private lands.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would greatly appreciate any input from CANUFNET members in response to some or all of the following questions. Any level of detail would be great, and if you don’t feel comfortable broadcasting to the list (although that’s encouraged
 so we can all share the information), feel free to email me directly.<o:p></o:p></p>
