Somewhat even aged urban forest.

We have come to a point in Saskatoon where we need to start to readdress 
our tree protection policy.  This year alone, we anticipate the loss of ¾ 
million dollars to construction projects.  I have been requested by 
council to address how we are protecting our trees from 
construction(Ironic as they are driving the development).  Anyways,  I 
would appreciate any documentation for your respective municipalities 
(urban or rural) that I may be able to take a look at so I can start 
rewriting our policies and turn them into a potential bylaw.
 
Thank you everyone
 
p.s. time is ticking away for the 2010 ISA Prairie Chapter conference here 
in Saskatoon.  Check out www.isaprairie.com for information about the 
conference as well as the Tree Climbing Championships.
