This amendment is sponsored by Councilmembers Piedmont and Sturbaum. It fixes three scrivener’s errors, amends all required time limits to be timed as working days, rather than calendar days, and adds an appeal process for citizens aggrieved by the City’s notice of tree removal. The new appeal process allows an aggrieved citizen to utilize the same appeal process that is in place for tree permit appeals and notice of violation appeals, both of which involve a public hearing. The only difference is that an appeal of the City’s notice of tree removal must be made within seven working days, as opposed to the ten working days allowed for the other two appeals. This time limit is shorter because an appeal made within seven working days of notice of tree removal will definitely be made before the City takes the tree down, as the City’s notice must be made at least ten working days before the tree is removed. The placard placed on the tree will include the date of posting, so that when the amendment period begins is clear.
