As a condition to any permit to remove any tree, the Service Director may require that the permittee plant another tree or trees in place of the one removed in conformance with Sections 909.05 and 909.20. Whenever any tree has been destroyed or removed pursuant to any conditional permit, no permittee shall fail, refuse or neglect to plant or supply another tree of the type, size and at the location specified in the permit, within five months from date of issuance of the permit.
Any person, firm or corporation desiring to remove a live tree for the construction of a walk, driveway, building, sign or any other structure for his or her own gain, shall deposit with the Service Director a sum equal to the value of the tree or trees as determined by the Director to insure the planting or replanting of trees when the construction work is completed. At the time of the planting or replanting of trees pursuant to Section 909.05 and to the satisfaction of the Service Director, the deposit shall be returned to the person, firm or corporation.
