Overview

A one-page flowchart from the City of Markham showing the tree permit process that runs alongside a Residential Grading and Servicing (RGS) application; the City's By-Laws page links it as the Construction Related Tree Permit Application Process. Its boxes trace an RGS application received, a Tree Assessment and Preservation Plan (TAPP) from a Qualified Tree Expert, City review, TAPP rejected or accepted, barrier fees and security deposits by letter of credit, and compliance inspections before and after construction, ending in a closed permit or a by-law order.
