That the City Solicitor (and the City Arborist) clarify the ordinance requiring tree removal for a new driveway or other construction project as Section 10.6 seems to contemplate the potential need to remove trees to accommodate driveway construction, as follows:
"Where new construction or driveway entrances require the removal of existing street trees, the owner shall replace the street trees lost on a one-to-one basis with new trees in compliance with the specifications of this Section. Replacement of street trees shall be additional to the standard provision of trees on the site in accordance with Section 10.3 of this Article."
