Staff Report & Agenda Item Details
Discuss and consider action regarding revisions to the City's existing Significant and Heritage Tree ordinance (Code of Ordinances, Chapter 14, Exhibit A, Article VI, Section 1 — Landscaping, Tree Preservation and Protection), to close provisions that currently permit wholesale removal of significant trees during development, and to bring the City's tree-preservation thresholds and mitigation fees into parity with neighboring Cities — consistent with the tree-ordinance revision Cedar Park adopted by unanimous vote in 2019.
