Receive Briefing On Modifications To The Tree Removal And Replacement Program To Include Trees On Private Property That Are Under Overhead Electricity Or Utility Lines.
Body
BACKGROUND:
On April 4, 2023, City Council was briefed on a program proposal for City involvement in the removal and replacement of trees located in public rights-of-way near overhead powerlines that have been pruned to an extent that they are at the end of their life span.
On April 2, 2024, a modification to the program was presented to the City Council Re-Development Committee to include trees on private property in strategic locations that have been excessively trimmed or pruned.
