TREES • Adrian Szabunio, ISA Certified Arborist of Woodridge Tree Consulting Arborists Ltd. prepared an Arborist Assessment for the subject site. The table below provides a summary of the proposed tree retention and removal. A detailed list of the proposed tree retention and removal by tree species can be found in (Appendix III): • All trees identified for removal, retention and/or replacement are subject to change prior to final approval of the arborist report. Table 1: Summary of Proposed Onsite Tree Preservation by Tree Species: Existing Remove Retain Alder/Cottonwood (outside riparian area) 7 7 0 Alder/Cottonwood (within riparian area) 0 0 0 Deciduous Trees 6 6 0 Coniferous Trees 5 5 0 Onsite Tree Totals 18 18 0 Onsite Replacement Trees Proposed 17 Total Onsite Retained and Replacement Trees 17 • The Arborist Assessment states that there are a total of 18 bylaw protected trees on the site. Additionally, there is 1 bylaw protected offsite tree and 1 bylaw protected City trees within proximity of the proposed development. The applicant proposes to retain 1 offsite trees as part of this development proposal. Additionally, 2 offsite trees are proposed for removal due to these being in poor condition and 2 City trees are proposed for removal due to being in poor condition. • For those trees that cannot be retained, the applicant will be required to plant trees on a 1 to 1 replacement ratio for Alder and Cottonwood trees, and a 2 to 1 replacement ratio for all other trees, including those Alder and Cottonwood trees that are within a streamside protection area. This will require a proposed total of 29 replacement trees on the site. Since only 17 replacement trees can be accommodated on the site, the proposed deficit of 12 replacement trees will require an estimated cash-in-lieu payment of $6,600, representing $550 per tree, to the Green City Program, in accordance with the City’s Tree Protection By-law. • The new trees on the site will consist of a variety of trees including maple, hawthorn, dogwood, spruce and pine. • In summary, a total of 17 trees are proposed to be retained or replaced on the site with an estimated contribution of $6,600 to the Green City Program.
