It's very helpful. Working clockwise from the top (Rolfe Rd) of the plot plan for each tree removed I find the following: DBH Inches Replacement inches Removed (using 2x multiplier for DBH equal or greater than 24 inches*) 42 84 12 12 24 48 12 12 24 48 114 204 It appears that replacement inches (required since 2017) for the mitigation fee were not used. If my math is correct, the mitigation payment would be $20,400* (not $11,400). Do you agree? On the question of why the $10/$100 fee/mitigation rates were used, I do see that the New Construction permit was filed before the July 29th, 2021 date on which the Attorney General approved the bylaw change increasing fees. On the other hand, the Demo Permit, with which the "Tree Warden Review" is associated, was submitted on August 9, 2021. So I guess a further discussion may be in order as to which is the controlling date. Can you clarify how it was determined that the earlier date applies? Best, Gerry *If the date of submission is taken as that of the Demo Permit, the 4X multiplier would be used along with the $20/$200 rates.
