Show the proposed paved edge and remaining grass terrace
Beaver Dam distinguishes terrace-width needs for large and small street-tree species and advises checking with the City Forester before planting. This guide supplies no dimension or species decision.
On an existing view or sketch, distinguish the current paved edge from the proposed enlargement. Identify the grass area expected to remain and the space being considered for planting. A drawing that shows only the new path can conceal how the adjoining area would change.
Resolve the planting-space question before the surface layout is fixed
Take the combined layout and intended planting question to the Forester. Explain which edge is proposed and which existing features are to remain. Leave actual suitability and any further requirements open for the relevant response.
Give the paving provider that same layout and ask what its surface proposal assumes about the adjoining space. If the response changes the arrangement, revise both references together. A nursery label names a candidate tree; it does not describe the terrace left after the proposed work or establish permission to plant there.
Questions about this project
Why show the terrace that remains after proposed Beaver Dam paving?
The City differentiates terrace space for large and small street-tree species. Show the actual proposed remaining area and ask the Forester rather than infer suitability from this guide.
Does a nursery tree label settle the space left by a frontage repair?
No. Show the proposed paving and remaining grass terrace together. Ask about that actual space; a candidate label alone establishes neither suitability nor planting permission.

For a rented home, confirm who can authorize alterations. In a shared building, ask about access and work rules. A citywide construction period does not establish the age, condition or safety requirements of an individual home; check the property records and the specific project.
