Status: Authorized with Conditions.
1. Provide a note on the plans specifying that all hedges abutting City Rights of way are maintained at a height no greater than 24”. It is staff’s recommendation that all trees VUA perimeter trees be 14’ OA to create a largest CPTED clear line of sight from roadway.

Any encroachment within the tree protection zone, failure to maintain the tree protection zone, or any damage to the tree(s) or critical root zones will result in mitigation. The cause of damages would include, but not be limited to, storage of materials, placing fill or debris, disposal of paint or solvents, parking of machines under trees or tree protection zone encroachment. An example of this would be; Violations of this will result in a fine of $1000.00 for the first offense, $1500.00 for the second, and $2000.00 for the third, etc. If physical damage is done to the tree, an appraisal of the damages and related fees will be determined by an ASCA Registered Consulting Arborist, and be based on all, or a percentage of, the established value assigned to the tree.
3. Provide a note that all existing trees will be pruned by an ISA Certified Arborist under the direction of a BCMA or ASCA Registered Consulting Arborist.
