SUBJECT: Tree Removal Application SR# 14128
COMMITTEE PURVIEW
Due to the property being located within a commercial zone, the Tree Committee’s role
is to review the Tree Removal Application and provide a recommendation to the
Community Development Director.
On September 12, 2023, I posted one Canary Island Pine tree located at 3765 Higuera
Street in response to Tree Removal Application SR#14128. The removal application was
submitted based on:
San Luis Municipal Code 12.24.090.E.1.
E. Criteria and Process for Non-Construction Related Tree Removal Application
Determinations Related to Tree Health or Hazard Mitigation or Property Owner
Convenience (Refer to Subsection G of This Section for Criteria for Construction
Tree Removal Determinations).
Note, the Tree Removal Application (Attachment C) originally requested removal of four
Canary Island Pine trees on this site, but the applicant has since amended their request
to only request removal one tree. The tree in question is located closest to the building
and appears to be causing structural damage to the concrete drainage channel.
