The Los Angeles City Council voted to have the Urban Forestry Division determine methods to preserve the city's trees and habitat areas. Councilmen Paul Koretz and Mike Bonin put forth the proposal, which was unanimously approved, to find ways to limit damage to trees during development and possibly add more trees. Koretz said their motion originated from concerns raised by residents in Bel Air, Laurel Canyon and Mandeville Canyon about how trees are too easily removed by developers even before development permit applications are submitted.
