Protected Tree and Shrub Ordinance

CPC-2016-4520-CA, CF 13-1339, ENV-2016-4521-CE

The proposed ordinance would extend protected status to two indigenous shrubs, the Mexican Elderberrry and the Toyon. The ordinance would also update the definition of a tree expert, modify the measurement criteria for protected trees and shrubs, and increase the number of trees and shrubs required to be planted when a protected tree or shrub is removed.

Status update: On September 17, 2019, the Planning and Land Use Management Committee transmitted the proposed ordinance to the Public Works and Gang Reduction Committee without recommendation.
