[CANUFNET] Tree roots in sewer lines

[Andrew Williams]

Maybe I'm under thinking this? But if you have tree roots growing into a sewer line then you by definition have a failed/compromised sewer lateral that will require repair or replacement regardless. That work is going to result in tree roots being cut to facilitate the repair or replacement, bylaw or no bylaw.

Seems a simple case of common sense and discretion on the part of those enforcing the bylaw.
