[CANUFNET] Soil Volume Policy

[Robinson, Steve]

Good morning;
I was hoping to gain some insight from the general populace as to their experience with the development of a soil volume policy. The City of Burlington would like to establish a 30 cu. M minimum soil volume requirement for all trees within the municipal road allowance (20 cu. M for shared trenches). The development of a policy rather than a guideline will force developers and utility providers to incorporate these necessary volumes into their designs at the outset, rather than an afterthought.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
