However, the street trees do not meet the minimum 2 inch caliper size required by the Spnngfleld Development Code, Article 32 050. To facilitate recording of the partition plat for the subject property, the City of Spnngfield will accept a $250 00 (per tree) deposit for replacement of the street trees along the Virginia Avenue frontage of the site.
