Re: Justification Statement
Observations:
The Golden Rain Tree earlier this summer sustained a major limb failure due to chronic
poor structure located in the main crotch. Decay has infiltrated the main crotch and the
connection between the two remaining scaffold limbs is weak. Since a third of the tree
canopy is lost due to the recent scaffold limb failure, the tree is now off balance.
Corrective pruning to minimize future limb failures is not practical or prudent at this
point. The tree is beyond repair. In its weakened state the tree has become a liability for
the homeowners & neighboring residences and is recommended to be removed.
