Except for routine or seasonal pruning or transplanting of trees, no person shall engage in any non-development activity as defined in Section 1375.01(i) without first obtaining an approval letter. The request for an approval letter shall be submitted to the Administrator and shall be, unless waived by the Administrator, in the form of a brief written narrative stating the reason for the proposed work and either site sketch or photograph of the tree(s) proposed to be removed, identifying such tree(s) by size, species and category. The Administrator, consistent with the purpose herein and not later than ten working days from receipt of a complete request, shall inform the applicant whether such proposed tree removal has been approved and whether replanting will be required.
