   (a)   No person shall plant, remove, destroy, cut, prune, treat, break, climb, injure or spray any tree existing on any public place in the village, or authorize or procure any other person to do so, or remove or tamper with any device placed for the protection of any such tree, or attach any rope, wire, chain, sign or other device placed for the protection of such tree, or authorize or cause the same to be done, without having first obtained written authority from the Village Arborist to do so.
   (b)   Such permit, when granted for the planting of any tree to be located on any public place in the village, shall designate the species of tree to be planted, the required spacing and the required minimum planting size, as specified in the Master Street Tree Plan, as such Plan now exists or as it may be amended from time to time. No person shall guy any tree less than four inches in caliper with wires or rope. For trees over four inches in caliper, special permission must be obtained and the permittee must assume liability for accidents occurring therefrom.
   (c)   The application for the permit herein required shall state the number and kind of trees to be trimmed, sprayed, preserved, removed or planted, the kind of treatment to be administered and such other information as the Village Arborist finds reasonably necessary to a fair determination of whether or not a permit should be issued hereunder.
   (d)   The Village Arborist shall issue the permit provided for herein when he finds that the desired action or treatment is necessary and that the proposed method and workmanship are satisfactory.
   (e)   The Village Arborist shall have the authority and it shall be his duty to supervise all work done under a permit issued in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.
   (f)   The Village Arborist shall have the authority to affix reasonable conditions to the granting of a permit hereunder.
   (g)   No permit shall be required to cultivate, fertilize or water public trees or shrubs.
