City of Arden Hills Chapter 7 Lakes, Trees, Parks Subd. 5 Factors to Be Considered. In considering the applications for permits the City Forester, Board of Appeals, and Council shall consider the size and type of the proposed tree in relation to other boulevard trees in the City. In general one species of tree should not constitute more than one-half of the boulevard trees in the City, and in anyone block, including both sides of the street, there should be a minimum of two (2) species and a maximum of three (3) species of boulevard trees. In permitting varieties of species to be planted consideration should be given to the desirability that the species conform as to size upon maturity. To the greatest extent possible, planting should be permitted in units of one block at a time. Nok: The City had notes on this subdivision that did not copy legibly. It appears that there is some question as to who currently considers these types of applications and who should, particularly concerning the involvement of the Board of Appeals. It appears that the Board of appeals refers to the Board of Appeals and Adjustments as provided in the zoning chapter. This Board would not need to be involved as this is not a zoning issue. The City can set forth its own process so the Park and Recreation Committee, or the Director of Parks and Recreation, etc. could be designated. Subd. 6 Issuance, Denial. If an application for a permit required by this Section and the proposed location are approved by the City Forester, the City Administrator shall issue the permit on forms provided for that purpose. If the application is disapproved, the City Administrator shall notify the applicant, in writing, of the denial and the reasons therefor. Subd 7 Appeal from Denial.
