Comment regarding Tree Removal Application #5793, posted at address of 2119 San Luis Drive (unable to attend
meeting due to work obligation):
We would like to register our opposition to the Tree Removal Application pending regarding the above referenced
address which seeks to cut down a large oak tree and a large sycamore tree on the property. We object to the proposed
removal because these trees provide aesthetic beauty to the street and the hillside along the street. Their removal is
certainly not necessary to build on this property. The large oak is near the property line and if it is too close to the
structure, the footprint of the proposed dwelling could be adjusted to accommodate the tree. The sycamore is up on
this hill and does not interfere with construction in any way and the alleged pest issue can be dealt with in other ways.
For these reasons, we would urge the tree committee to reject this pending tree removal application.
P.S. — If I am not mistaken, I believe this property owner, or their predecessor, has already removed oaks from the front
of this property and there is absolutely no need to remove these remaining two trees.
Respectfully submitted,
Mike & Susan Staub
