Overview

The office consolidation of Brampton's Woodlot Conservation By-law 316-2012, passed in November 2012 and repealing By-law 402-2005, the companion to the Tree Preservation By-law for trees growing in woodlots. It rests on the Region of Peel's 2005 delegation of its woodland power to the City under subsection 135(8) of the Municipal Act. A woodlot is land of at least 0.2 hectares holding set numbers of trees by size. Exemptions cover hazardous trees, emergency work and normal farm practice; permits run one year, and fines range from $500 to $100,000.
