Re: Dead Tree Removals at 1-2 Infinite Loop, Cupertino
To whom it may concern,
Arborwell has been retained to prepare an arborist letter for the commercial properties at 1-2 Infinite
Loop in Cupertino, CA. This letter documents the necessity to remove three (3) dead Quercus spp.
(Oaks).
The tree species and metric are the foillowing:
ID Species DBH
A Shumard Oak 4"
B Interior Live Oak 4"
C Interior Live Oak 4"
The trees were determined to be dead(see Exhibit 1.2)due to their extensive brown foliage, complete
lack of green foliage, and loss of leaves mid-growing season. The oaks likely died as a result of sun
scalding due to being in the next to hardscape. Although impossible to determine which individuals
are prone to sun scalding, some individuals may die from this condition after being planted.
Removal of a dead tree does not require a live tree removal permit prior to its removal pursuant to
Section 14.18.150 of the City of Cupertino's Municipal Code; however, a subsequent application
must be filed within five(5)working days. The trees will require replacement, selected by the Apple
arborist to ensure optimal structure, health, and no girdling roots. The selected trees 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 replacement are one (1) 36-inch box Shumard
Oak, and two (2)24-inch Interior Live Oaks in the same location as the proposed removals.
Please review this information and contact me with any questions or concerns regarding the
information provided in this letter.
Sincerely,
C_7�_
