    An inspector has visited this location; we understand that the sidewalk is narrow at this location but the City is not in favor of removing an otherwise healthy tree; the City is in need of additional tree canopy. In situations such as this, it would be expected upon a future redevelopment of the property, the City would request that the property owner dedicate additional public right-of-way for widening the sidewalk.
