Gilroy Municipal Code § 26.5 Same – Trees which must be on list

All trees hereafter planted in or which may overhang the public streets of the city must be on the master tree list, unless a written permit from the director shall have first been obtained to plant a tree not on said list. Such permit may be granted by the director only upon his obtaining approval therefor from the commission. It shall be unlawful to plant any tree except as in this section provided.

(Ord. No. 75-13, § 1, 8-4-1975)

The director shall develop a tree planting plan whereby specific tree species are designated for specific locations in the city. Such plan shall be submitted to the commission for its review and final approval. When approved by the commission, such plan shall be placed on file in the office of the commission and shall thereafter be the official master street tree planting plan. All trees planted thereafter in any public street shall be of the designated species. Additions or changes in such master street tree planting plan may be made from time to time by the director in the manner described in this section for the development, approval, and filing of the original master street tree planting plan.
