MINUTES: Approval of Minutes of February 24, 2014
Ms. Worthy moved to approve the minutes as submitted.
Mr. Loosley seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
TREE REMOVAL APPLICATIONS
1. 1309 Richard St./ 1425 Woodside Dr. (3 eucalyptus; pine)
Joshua Moody, applicant, discussed the removal request and the plans for a new
residential lot/configuration. He stated that the eucalyptus has experienced falling
limbs in the past and presented a safety hazard, and that the trees were in a poor
location regarding plans for installing a retaining wall, landscaping, and a pool. He
also stated that the tree in the back would shade proposed solar panels and that the
pine was in the way of the driveway retaining wall. He wanted to plant new trees
along the property line to block the view of the adjacent commercial property.
Mr. Combs reported that the pine tree's health was questionable, but the
eucalyptuses were healthy. He agreed they were in a poor location for the proposed
site development.
Mr. Loosley felt the development excavation would affect the root zone of the
eucalyptus and agreed the pine had health issues.
Ms. Worthy felt the tree #3 was out of the development zone and might be retained.
2
Mr. Duffy felt that any removals should be contingent upon the development plan
approval.
Mr. Parker agreed with Mr. Duffy.
Mr. Duffy moved to approve the removal request, based on undue hardship to the
property owner, with replacement plan as proposed by applicant. He stipulated any
removals were contingent upon the site development plans being approved.
Mr. Loosley seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
2. 1229-1239 Fredericks (4 pines)
The applicant discussed the removal request, stating that the large pines were
creating damage issues with the irrigation lines, water main, sidewalks, and the
foundation.
Mr. Combs reported the large trees were healthy and causing some minor
displacement.
Joseph Bayshore, tenant, did not favor removing the skyline trees. He felt doing so
would harm the character of the neighborhood, which was run-down. He also noted
they provided a significant amount of needed shade and that other property tenants
agreed with retaining the trees.
Mr. Duffy did not see significant evidence of damage due to roots and stated the
trees were an enhancement to the area.
Ms. Worthy agreed.
Mr. Loosley felt one of the trees had possible structural issues, but the other ones
were healthy, signature trees.
Mr. Parker agreed with Committee comments.
Mr. Loosley moved to approve the removal of Tree #2 only, based on promoting
good arboricultural practice, and required replacement planting of one 15 -gallon
tree to be chosen from the Master Street Tree List and planted within 45 days of
tree's removal. He further moved to deny the removal of the remaining three trees,
as he could not make the necessary findings.
Mr. Duffy seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
3
3. Lot next to 918 Felicia Way (Pepper)
Steve Franzman, applicant's representative, discussed the issues a neighbor had
pertaining to severe allergies to the tree in question, due to pollen and root suckers,
and stated that legal action might be considered, due to distress.
Mr. Combs stated that the tree was healthy and he could not make his necessary
findings for removal.
Mr. Loosley was conflicted about removal, as the tree was beautiful and no official
documentation regarding the allergy condition had been submitted and the afflicted
neighbor was not present to discuss the matter.
Mr. Parker agreed that medical documentation regarding the allergies was
warranted if that was the basis for allowing removal.
Mr. Parker moved to deny the removal request, as he could not make the findings
necessary for removal.
Ms. Worthy seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
The Committee agreed to hear the matter again, should health documentation be
presented with the removal request.
4. 750 Industrial Way (Eucalyptus)
Albert Hummel, applicant, discussed the removal request and reported about past
root failure and fallen tree due to armalloria being present in the soil and was
concerned about this tree suffering as well. He also noted the area was filled with
transients and there were plans by Marigold Center to try to "clean up" the area.
Mr. Combs agreed with the issue of soil contamination.
Mr. Loosley felt the large tree had poor structure.
Ms. Worthy and Mr. Duffy agreed.
Mr. Loosley moved to approve the removal request, based on promoting good
arboricultural practice, and required replacement planting of one 15 -gallon tree to
be chosen from the Master Street Tree List and planted within 45 days of tree's
removal in conjunction with their land scape plan.
Ms. Worthy seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
rd
5. 1076 Pacific St. (3 liquid ambers)
David Bowin, applicant, discussed the removal request and stated the trees were too
large for the area, that their debris was creating trip hazard, and he was concerned
the roots would cause damage. He wanted to replace the trees with a more
contained species. He also stated that he could not fix the retaining wall with the
trees in place. He discussed a replacement -planting plan.
Mr. Combs reported that the trees were healthy, but agreed with the applicant's
concerns.
Jim Hugh, Greenvale Tree Co., stated the insurance company had indicated they
might not continue coverage with the trees in place as is.
Carol Tangeman, 1055 Pacific, felt if the new owner had replanting plan in place, she
could favor the removal.
Ms. Worthy agreed the two front yard trees could be removed, but favored retaining
the backyard tree.
Mr. Loosley felt the trees were in good shape, but approved of the replacement plan
presented.
Mr. Parker felt the trees in the front could be pruned.
Mr. Duffy moved to approve the removal request, based on doing so would not harm
the character of the neighborhood or environment, and supported the applicant's
replacement plan as proposed.
Mr. Loosley seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
6. 902 Peach (3 eucalyptus)
Ken Carpenter, applicant's representative, discussed the removal request and
reported that the sidewalk had been uprooted and the driveway was cracked and
that the sewer had been impacted with roots. He felt the trees were too large for the
small lot and removing them would not harm the character of the neighborhood. He
felt they posed a liability issue due to limb droppage.
5
Mr. Combs stated that there had been some sidewalk and driveway displacement.
Mr. Loosley felt pruning could mitigate the risk to building and data line
interference.
Mr. Parker agreed that a certified arborist could safety prune the trees. He would
further consider the item if an arborist affirmed there was hazard and the applicant
submitted a replacement -planting plan.
Mr. Parker moved to deny the removal request, as he could not make the findings
necessary for removal.
Mr. Duffy seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
7. 109 Highland (2 liquid ambers)
Brian Uder, applicant, discussed the removal request and the displaced sidewalks
and noted the roots were in the sewer line. He did not think the non-native trees
were skyline trees and wanted to replace them with Western Redbud.
Mr. Combs reported that they were healthy street trees that caused a good amount
of displacement.
Mr. Parker felt some of the driveway damage was due to settling.
Mr. Duffy moved to approve the removal request, based on undue hardship to the
property owner, and required replacement planting of two 15 -gallon trees to be
chosen from the Master Street Tree List and planted within 45 days of trees'
removals.
Ms. Worthy seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
The Committee suggested using Eastern Redbud species instead.
I
NEW BUSINESS
The Committee discussed Arbor Day ceremony, which will be held on April 19, 2014
beginning at 9 a.m.
Mr. Parker discussed the cooperative city/residential tree -planting program in
Oregon and suggested investigating whether there was grant money available for
our area.
OLD BUSINESS
There was on-going Committee discussion on how to improve the removal
application, with a thought of needing to go to two pages for including all
information pertaining to the removal request.
Mr. Parker noted there was a bad link on the City page leading to the Master Street
Tree list.
Mr. Combs distributed updated Grange Hall landscaping plans. The Committee
agreed to review and discuss it at the next meeting, requesting that representatives
from the Grange Hall be present for the discussion.
ARBORIST REPORT
Mr. Combs reported that he sent out a penalty/fine letter regarding the illegal tree
removal at California/Marsh streets.
The meeting adjourned at 6:40 p.m. to next regular meeting scheduled for Monday,
April 28, 2014, at 5:00 p.m.

Comments:
Dear Ron:
i
Attached please find the San Luis Obispo TREE REMOVAL APPLICATION for
2363 Leona Avenue as well as a sketch map. The trees are along the side
of the property between 2363 & 2359 Leona Avenue. They have been
marked with colored tape for clear identification.
As indicated on the application, the trees are destroying the house
foundation and walkways and are intruding into the water lines and storm
sewers. I believe that they should be removed as soon as possible.
Thanks for your consideration of this application as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Robert Schreiber

Hi Janet,
The reason this did not go to Tree Committee for review is that the trees were to be replaced. The existing
pines did show signs of Beatles and Pitch Canker. They can hang on for years sometimes before fully
succumbing to the disease and sometimes they die completely in six months. I felt it was appropriate to
approve knowing they would be replaced as stated on the application. I believe that there are neighbors that
are willing to water until irrigation can be updated as part of your long term landscape plans.
I do not have the ability to grant an exception to our requirement. I will hold off on any further action If you
would like to address this item at the next Tree Committee Meeting. I can arrange to put you on our next
agenda. The next Tree Committee Meeting is April 28th. Let me know by April 10th and I will be able to agenize
your item.

Subject: Laguna Shores tree removal
Mr. Combs,
I am the property manager for Laguna Shores and understand a resident has complained about the tree removal
done by the HOA. At the time, we were unaware of an ordinance that requests trees be replanted within 45
days.
Laguna Shores is undergoing landscape refurbishment to improve the property with draught tolerant
plants. They have divided the development up into phases. The area where trees were removed was labeled as
phase 2. Phase 1 is scheduled to be planted next week. Laguna Shores has contracted with All Seasons
Landscape for architectural plans and installation.
After phase 1 is complete, they expect to start the planning process for phase 2 with install in the near
future. This is a five year project and will progress as funds allow but as you can understand, water costs are
making it difficult to move any faster than they are.
I request the City to grant an exception to Laguna Shores for an extension of the time to replant trees. I would
be happy to send you the Board's accepted landscape plan for phase 2 when its available.
Thank you for your consideration.
