Council finalizes 6-month ordinance banning large-tree removal; OKs planning board appointment schedule Posted: April 27, 2021 19
Edmonds City Attorney Jeff Taraday, bottom row-right, discusses tree ordinance language with the city council and mayor Tuesday night.
It’s official: The City of Edmonds now has an interim six-month ordinance on the books that prohibits the removal of large trees on private property.
The Edmonds City Council at its Tuesday night meeting reviewed a resolution outlining findings of fact that support continuing the ordinance, which was discussed in detail at last week’s meeting that included a required public hearing. The council on Tuesday voted 6-1 to continue it, with Councilmember Diane Buckshnis who has advocated for even stricter tree-cutting regulations voting no.
