While the City’s tree protection by-law may well be in need of up-dating, my experience has been that the City’s own inaction in response to residents concerns/requests is partly responsible for some of the illegal cutting.
As one example, our strata council has made numerous requests/visits to City Hall simply to have a couple of trees trimmed.
Despite promises the work will be done, three years later we are still waiting. And the City wonders why illegal cutting takes place.
