[CANUFNET] Trees and Capital Construction

[Wood, Crispin]

Hello Folks,

A question or two for the municipalities if I may:



  1.  How does you municipality protect trees when designing (not constructing) streetscape renewal projects? i.e. Do you have policy, strategy, orders of council etc?
  2.  How does your municipality compensate for mature trees removed during capital construction (do you have a calculation of value, and is it published in policy, bylaw or strategy)?
  3.  How do you plan for new green infrastructure in the Road Right-of-way (do you have landscape design standards, streetscaping standards, policy to protect or enhance green infrastructure)?
  4.  Are your current tools working?

Any responses are appreciated
