A written permit issued by the Public Works Department shall be obtained when the erection, repair, alteration or removal of any building, house or structure necessitates the trimming, pruning, or removal of any street tree. The City Council shall set from time to time by resolution a permit fee for such permits. As a condition to a permit granted pursuant to this section, the applicant shall deposit a security with the city, in an amount to be determined by the City Manager, sufficient to defray the cost of replacing the removed tree with an approved tree in conformance with the street tree plan.
