Re: Tree Removals at 10411 Bubb Road, Cupertino, CA
nY
To whom it may concern,
This letter intends to address seven (7) trees located on the 10411 Bubb Road property.
Specifically,we are proposing to remove said trees from the property.
The subject trees are at the parking area on the south-side of the property along the rear access
lane. The following table contains the metrics for the proposed removals, corresponding to the
locations in Exhibit 1.1:
� • • •- � . - . • -.•
1102 Chinese Elm Ulmus arvifolia 4" 13" 15' 10'
1103 Chinese Eim Ulmus arvifolia 11" 35" 30' 30'
1104 Chinese Elm Ulmus arvifolia 12" 38" 30' 30'
; 1105 � Chinese Elm Ulmus arvifolia 10° 31" 30' 25' i
1106 Chinese Elm Ulmus parvifolia 1" 3" 10' 5' �
1107 Chinese Elm Ulmus parvifolia 12" 38° 30' 3�
' 1108 Chinese Elm Ulmus parvifolia___ 13" _ 41" �30' _30' �
The seven(7) subject trees can be considered Protected Trees pursuant to Section 14.18.035 of
the City of Cupertino's Municipal Code. Currently, there is a renovation of the interior and
exterior portions of the property and these removals coincide with the second phase of the
project. The current locations of the subject trees is in direct conflict with the proposed
renovations. Please see Exhibits 1.02 through 1.08 for images of the trees,taken on Apri14, and
April 17, and August 5, 2014.
The following trees are considered to be in good condition, having stable structures and good
health: 1103, 1106
The following trees are considered to be in fair condition, having moderate health and structure
due to being located under the building's eve and repeatedly topped to accommodate the limited
growing space: 1104, 1105, 1107, 1108
The following tree is considered to be in poor condition, having significant, declining health
defects, possibly due to heat-island effect and foliage burn from the property's extensive
reflective hardscape and usage of reclaimed water, respectively, and the negative response
typically observed in elm and redwoods under those conditions: 1102
The property owner understands that the removal of protected trees is subject to a tree removal
permit and any fees and mitigation associated pursuant to Section 14.18 of the City of

Recommendations
Because of the declining condition of the 7 trees, the request to remove and to replace is
warranted.
As described in the report by Mr. Oakley, a full renovation will be required to assure that
the replacement trees could be expected to thrive. The recommended replacement is the
Southern live oak(Quercus virginiana), which would be an appropriate replacement
species for this location, in my opinion.
Respectfully submitted,

Cupertino's Municipal Code. The tree will require replacement, selected to ensure optimal
structure, health, and no girdling roots. The selected tree will then be trained from an early age
as needed to optimize branching structure, extending the aesthetically and structurally sound
lifespan of the tree. The proposed replacements are located throughout the landscaped area,
shown in Exhibit 1.01. The quantities, sizing, and species are as follows: seven(7) 24-inch box
Quercus virginiana (southern live oak).
Along with the removals, we recommended a full soil renovation throughout the entirety of
the perimeter and building planters, including rototilling all soil to a depth of eighteen (18)
inches and the addition of soil amendments into the root zone. This will encourage deeper
rooting, vigorous growth, better performance, and, as a result, less potential for tree
mortality. Mulch should be applied and irrigation upgrades should be installed.
To summarize this project, we are asking permission to remove seven(7) Protected Trees, and
mitigate the proposed removals with seven(7) 24-inch box replacements coinciding with a full
soil renovation of the building's planting areas. Please review this information and contact me
with any questions or concerns regarding the information provided in this letter.
Sincerely,

An inspection of Seven Trees
Apple Corporation Office Building
10411 Bubb Road
Cupertino, California
Assignment
I was asked by Gian Paolo Martire, Planner, City of Cupertino, to review the
request to remove and replace 7 Chinese elm trees at the Apple Office Building,
10411 Bubb Road, Cupertino.
An Arborist Report, prepared by Sam Oakley, Arborwell Tree Service, dated
August 5, 2014, requests removal and replaceinent.
Observations
I reviewed the trees on September 18, 2014.
All of the 7 trees are Chinese elm (Ulmus parvifolia).
I rate the condition of each of the trees along side the ratings provided by Mr. Oakley, as
follows:
Tree# OakleYRating My Rating
1102 Poor Fair/Poor
1103 Good Poor
1104 Fair Poor
1105 Fair Poor
1106 Good Fair
1107 Fair Very Poor
1108 Fair Fair
Although Tree# 1102 now has more leaves than shown in the photo by Mr. Oakley(I did
not take photos), this tree is nevertheless a marginal specimen. Although it has more
leaves, possibly a response to recent irrigation, its leaves are approximately 1/8 normal
size.
