2015 approving a Tree Removal Permit to allow the removal and replacement of a dead 24.3" diameter
Pine tree (Pinus canariensus)located in a Planned Development Zone, located at 10317 Mary Avenue.
Staff has made the finding that the protected tree is dead and cannot be controlled or remedied
through reasonable relocation or modification. The proposed replacement plan is consistent with
the Protected Tree Ordinance since the applicant is replacing the trees on site, and the number of
replacements is consistent with the ordinance. The finding is necessary to grant the tree removal
permit in accordance with section 14.18.180 (A) (1) and (3).
The application is approved with the following conditions:
1. APPROVED PROTECT
This approval is based on the arborist report prepared by Jeff Hillman(#WE-10086A), dated July 30,
2015, consisting of three pages and a tree removal and replacement site plan, except as may be
amended by conditions in this resolution.
2. TREE REPLACEMENT
The required replacement trees include two 24" box Lagerstroemia indica. The applicant shall
provide the Department of Community Development adequate documentation, including but not
limited to photographs, receipts or invoices, to verify that the replacement trees have been planted
within 30 days of replanting.
3. PROTECTED TREES
The applicant understands that replacement trees are protected trees and may not be removed
without a Tree Removal Permit and that they shall be responsible for ensuring the proper
maintenance and care of the trees. The applicant shall also disclose the location and species of all
replacements trees on site upon sale of the property.
4. NOTICE OF FEES DEDICATIONS RESERVATIONS OR OTHER EXACTIONS
T'he conditions of Project Approval set forth herein may include certain fees, dedication
requirements, reservation requirements, and other exactions. I'ursuant to Government Code
Section 66020(d) (1), these Conditions constitute written notice of a statement of the amount of such
fees, and a description of the dedications, reservations, and other exactions. You are hereby notified
that the 90-day approval period in which you may protest these fees, dedications, reservations, and
other exaction, pursuant to Government Code Section 66020(a), has begun. If you fail to file a
protest within this 90-day period complying with all of the requirements of Section 66020, you will
be legally barred from later challenging such exactions.
