Disclaimer The Recommended Candidate Tree charts (the Candidates ) that are included in this Tree Planting and Protection Policy are intended as a guide to tree and shrub species that should be considered under various physical site conditions by Municipal staff (or by authorized contractors retained by the Municipality) on Municipal properties. The Candidates are not intended to be a definitive list of species or a landscaping guide. The Candidates are based upon research undertaken by members of the Tree Advisory Committee ( TAC ) and the collective knowledge of its members. The Candidates will be reviewed periodically by TAC and revised accordingly, if necessary, based upon species availability, cost, previous successes and failures, susceptibility to diseases, etc. When a particular Candidate (s) is (are) selected for planting, consideration will be given by TAC to the appearance of the species within the context of the environment in which the species are planted. All Candidates in the charts are deemed to be hardy for growing within the and, to the greatest extent possible, salt and pollution-resistant.
