Amendments to Tree Protection Bylaw - Councillor MacKenzie

"Councillor Rogers argued that the motion should be broadened to include amendments to all relevant town bylaws (like Zoning Bylaw 900) to protect the entire tree canopy, not just the Tree Protection Bylaw, especially given new provincial density regulations (Bill 44). Staff advised against immediate, comprehensive changes, noting that they are stretched for time and prefer to focus on a quick 'stop gap' change now, with full integration planned later under the Urban Forest Strategy and OCP review."
