Title

Revised Heritage Tree Ordinance.

 

Body

RECOMMENDED ACTION (Motion):

Review and recommend adoption of the revisions to the Heritage Tree code to the City Commission.

 

BACKGROUND:

At the direction of the City Commission, between June and October 2014, planning staff and the Natural Resources Committee (NRC) drafted amendments to the Heritage Tree code.

 

The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed revisions at a worksession on December 8, 2014. The commission requested to see the tracked-changes in order to compare the original ordinance to the revisions.

 

A copy of the tracked changes version in MS-Word format is attached. The current code and final NRC recommended draft are attached.

 

To date, there have been five Heritage Tree and one Heritage Grove nominations approved by the City Commission. See http://www.orcity.org/planning/heritage-trees-and-groves for details.
