§ 101.11. Removal.

Latest version.

In the event an adjoining property owner desires the removal of a live city tree for his own convenience or business, such as installation of driveways or sewer trouble, when, in the opinion of the Director of Public Service or his authorized agent, the tree is not the contributing factor, or lawn trouble, the City may remove it but the expense of removal and appraised value of the tree shall be borne by the adjoining property owner. The City shall have a lien for the same on the adjoining property until paid and it may be levied, assessed, and collected as other property taxes or assessments. However, the Director or his authorized agent may, at his discretion, permit such adjoining property owner to remove the tree, in which case the property owner shall assume all expense of the removal and all liability for any damages to property or injuries to persons resulting therefrom. In the above instances a deposit with the Director is necessary in advance of the work to be done. Penalty, see § 101.99.
