Title
An Act for the purpose of clarifying applicability requirements, amending regulations, providing certain exemptions, and codifying waiver procedures from requirements of the Tree Canopy Ordinance.
Background
This bill provides revisions to certain sections of this Subtitle of the County Code that were approved by the County Council on July 13, 2010 and became effective on September 1, 2010, collectively known as the “Environmental Legislation.” During the early implementation stages it was discovered that minor clarifications and streamlining language are needed. This bill addresses applicability and exemptions and provides a waiver process that does not require the approval of a variance.
