Trees ordinance tabled for more departmental input
Summary
A proposed trees ordinance was presented and tabled for redrafting after the sponsor said she would work with the city arborist and other departments to tighten language; matter will return at the next legislative affairs meeting.
Councilor Rogers introduced an ordinance pertaining to trees in Everett and said she was collaborating with the city arborist and other staff to refine the language for Everett’s needs. She asked to table the item to the next legislative affairs meeting so staff (including the arborist and Parks/urban-forestry experts) could help craft more specific and appropriate language.
The committee moved and seconded a motion to table the ordinance to the next meeting; the motion carried. No final policy change was made; the ordinance will be revised and returned for further consideration.
