1 REPORT FOR ACTION Application to Remove a Private Tree - 2 Saralou Court Date: April 6, 2017 To: Etobicoke York Community Council From: Jason Doyle, Director, Urban Forestry, Parks, Forestry and Recreation Wards: Ward 3 - Etobicoke Centre SUMMARY This report requests that City Council deny request for a permit to remove one (1) privately-owned tree located at 2 Saralou Court. The application indicates the reasons for removal are due to concerns that the tree is growing too close to a fence, and is in declining health. The subject tree is a Colorado blue spruce (Picea pungens), measuring 58 cm in diameter. The Private Tree By-law does not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable. RECOMMENDATIONS The General Manager of Parks, Forestry and Recreation recommends that: 1. City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one (1) privately-owned tree located at 2 Saralou Court. FINANCIAL IMPACT There are no financial implications resulting from the adoption of this report. DECISION HISTORY There is no decision history regarding this tree removal permit application. COMMENTS Urban Forestry received an application for a permit to remove one (1) privately-owned tree at 2 Saralou Court. The subject tree is a Colorado blue spruce tree measuring 58 cm in diameter. The request to remove this tree has been made to address concerns Application to Remove a Private Tree - 2 Saralou Court Page 1 of 12
2 that the tree is growing too close to a fence, and is in declining health due to irregular scaffold branches, production of large amounts of seed cones and an unknown condition affecting the root system. The arborist report that accompanied the application assessed the tree to be in fair condition. Urban Forestry staff inspected the tree and determined it is healthy and in good condition, both botanically and structurally. This tree is located approximately 3.3 meters from the fence. The trunk is straight, and at the time of the inspection did not exhibit any obvious signs of significant decay. The branch attachments appear to be strong and the scaffolding growth pattern is normal. The number of seed cones produced by coniferous trees normally fluctuates from year to year. The current number of seeds produced this year is within a normal range. The unidentified condition mentioned in the submitted arborist report that is affecting the trees root system was not apparent during the inspection, however soil compaction that is typical in a residential rear yard was noted. No evidence of any of the claims in this application were provided or visible at the time when staff inspected the tree. When reviewing applications for tree removal, Urban Forestry staff are guided by City policies and bylaws including City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 813, Article III, more commonly referred to as the Private Tree By-law. The Private Tree By-law does not have a mechanism that would allow the removal of the subject tree based on the concerns stated in the tree removal permit application. As required under Section , of City of Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 813, Trees, Article III, a Notice of application sign was posted on the subject property for the minimum 14-day period in order to provide an opportunity for comment by the community. No comments were received in response to the posting. A permit to remove the tree was denied by Urban Forestry. The owner is appealing this decision. Should City Council approve this request for tree removal, in accordance with Section of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 813, Trees, Article III, permit issuance must be conditional upon the provision of satisfactory replacement planting. As a condition of permit issuance, the applicant is proposing to plant one (1) replacement tree. However, in this instance it would be appropriate for the applicant to provide five (5) replacement trees which can be achieved in a combination of on-site planting and cash-in-lieu of planting. Trees improve the quality of urban life and contribute greatly to our sense of community. They help to soften the hard lines of built form and surfaces in an urban setting. Trees contribute to the overall character and quality of neighbourhoods. Studies suggest that social benefits such as crime reduction and neighbourhood cohesion can be attributed to the presence of trees. Application to Remove a Private Tree - 2 Saralou Court Page 2 of 12
3 The environmental benefits of trees include cleansing of air, noise and wind reduction, and protection from ultraviolet radiation. Trees reduce rainwater runoff thereby reducing soil erosion and lowering storm water management costs. They also contribute to moderation of temperature extremes and reduction of the urban heat island effect by providing shade during the summer. Trees provide many economic benefits including the enhancement of property values. Homes with mature trees have higher value when compared to similar types of homes in similar locations without trees. Mature trees are associated with reduced home energy consumption. Air conditioning costs are lower in a home shaded by trees and heating costs are reduced when trees mitigate the cooling effects of wind in winter. Trees are a community resource which can make the city more attractive to investors, tourists and prospective residents thus contributing to growth and prosperity. It is the goal of the City of Toronto to increase the City's tree canopy to 40 per cent. The loss of trees in the City due to the ice storm experienced in late December 2013, compounded with additional tree loss due to the presence of the Asian longhorned beetle and the emerald ash borer make the preservation of all healthy trees more necessary now than ever. The Colorado blue spruce tree at 2 Saralou Court is a valuable part of the urban forest. With proper care and maintenance this tree has the potential to provide the property owner and the surrounding community with benefits for many more years. In accordance with the City Council-approved Strategic Forest Management Plan, Toronto's Official Plan and the Tree By-law, this tree should not be removed.
