3225 Homewood, PID# 0964082609, it appears that a portion of the

approximately 4,000 square feet. The code looks to account for a $15,000  
fine where we are unable to determine the amount of trees removed, or a  
portion thereof. In this case it looks like a fine of $6,000.00 could be  
assessed to account for the unpermitted loss of canopy. Please see

assessment.)
