Public Comments: Chair Loosley opened the public hearing. Dr. Powers agreed with the crowding issue and favored removal. Chair Loosley closed the public hearing. Committee Member Bate stated he would abstain from voting due to conflicts of interest. The Committee discussed the item, agreeing that the oaks were not thriving and the site was overcrowded. They suggested any replacement trees could be planted in the neighborhood instead of specifically on site. ACTION: MOTION BY COMMITTEE MEMBER LUCAS, SECONDED BY COMMITTEE MEMBER SOLL, to approve the removal request based on removal would not harm the character of the neighborhood or environment and required two 15 -gallon replacement tree is to be chosen from the Master Street Tree list with one planted on property and one designated as a street tree in the area.

Mr. Combs stated the large tree was healthy and he could not make the findings to allow removal. Public Comments: Chair Loosley opened the public hearing. Dr. Powers discussed what constituted "liability" and stated he did not see wall damage. He favored retaining and pruning the tree. Chair Loosley closed the public hearing. The Committee discussed the removal request and agreed there was no evidence of wall damage and that significant pruning would mitigate liability issues. They felt the tree was important to the neighborhood. ACTION: MOTION BY COMMITTEE MEMBER BATE, SECONDED BY COMMITTEE MEMBER LUCAS, to deny the request, as they could not make the necessary findings for removal. Motion passed 5-0-1-1 on the following roll call vote: AYES: BATE, LOOSLEY, LUCAS, SOLL, THURMAN, WORTHY NOES: NONE ABSENT: O'BRIEN - 778 Higuera (2 podocarpus) Rissa Brown, applicant's representative, discussed the removal request and the damage to the patio seating area, noting walls were being damaged and the patio was lifting due to one of the trees and the second tree had irrigation backflow issues and was breaking the planter. She stated the property was transferring ownership at this time. Mr. Combs stated the large tree was healthy, causing minimal hardscape damage, and that he could not make the findings to allow removal. Public Comments: Chair Loosley opened the public hearing. Paula Sauer, nearby business owner, was concerned about losing the shade of those trees and felt the hardscape issues could be fixed. DRAFT Minutes — Tree Committee Meeting of April 23, 2018 Page 3 Andy Wise, resident, and Dr. Powers agreed with Ms. Sauer. Chair Loosley closed the public hearing. The Committee discussed the removal request and agreed there was minimal hardscape damage and that the shade provided by the trees was critical to the area. They suggested if the new owner wanted to provide an arborist's report that supported the concerns, the permit request could be revisited. ACTION: MOTION BY COMMITTEE CHAIR LOOSLEY, SECONDED BY COMMITTEE MEMBER BATE, to deny the request, as they could not make the necessary findings for removal. Motion passed 6-0-1 on the following roll call vote: AYES: BATE, LOOSLEY, LUCAS, SOLL, THURMAN, WORTHY NOES: NONE ABSENT: O'BRIEN - 571 Patricia (Fan palm) There was no applicant to speak to the item- - 949 Higuera There was no applicant to speak to the item. - 393 Marsh (Ficus) Lyle Nemeth, City representative. Discussed the removal request and stated that the significant displacement caused by the roots did not meet AADA requirements, presented severe trip/fall hazards, and that previous repairs did not mitigate lifting issues. He discussed replacement planting for the street tree, including structural soils and reinforced sidewalk materials. Mr. Combs stated the large tree was healthy and that he could not make the findings to allow removal. Public Comments: Chair Loosley opened the public hearing. Dr. Powers felt the tree was important at the City entrance on Marsh St. and suggested root pruning instead of removal. Mr. Wise discussed the possible easement and sidewalk widening to be able to retain the tree. DRAFT Minutes — Tree Committee Meeting of April 23, 2018 Page 4 Chair Loosley closed the public hearing. The Committee discussed the removal request and agreed the tree was important to the City gateway. They discussed the need to replace the sidewalk instead of patching repairs and the option of getting an easement from the owner for bulb outs, etc. The Committee agreed to continue the item until the owner can be approached about an easement and root inspection can be performed. 686 Higuera (Ficus) Mr. Nemeth discussed the removal request regarding the fire line alignment/installation that the City was requiring, as well as past complaints and trip and falls, ADA compliance issues, and the significant hardscape displacement. He discussed liability concerns and was concerned about the tree's survival with the alignment construction parameters. He further discussed replacement planting and sidewalk specifications. Mr. Combs stated the large tree was healthy and that he could not make the findings to allow removal. Public Comments: Chair Loosley opened the public hearing Michael Morris, McLintock's representative, discussed concerns with safety issues and reported that the roots interfere with plumbing. Dr. Powers did not think the curb had been replaced for a long time and suggested a hand -rail system around the tree. Emil Bride, resident, discussed the location issues during Farmer's Market and that pedestrians walk along the loading zone area. Mr. Wise stated he did not favor removal and felt the Ficus needs to be retained for downtown appeal and character. Toney Breault, site owner, noted that he didn't own the alleyway and access. He reiterated concerns about liability and safety and that he wanted his business to be a good steward for downtown. He did not believe the tree could be retained and mitigate the safety issues. Chair Loosley closed the public hearing and noted that Allan Cooper, Save Our Downtown representative, had submitted a letter favoring retaining the tree. The Committee discussed the removal request and agreed the tree needed to be better maintained and that trenching would allow for some root inspection. They also discussed the grate option. DRAFT Minutes — Tree Committee Meeting of April 23, 2018 Page 5 Committee Member Thurman was concerned trenching might de -stabilize the tree and suggested exploring horizontal boring as an option. The Committee directed the applicant to explore options and draft trenching specifications for the public right-of-way in coordination with the City Arborist to meet engineering standards, with the intent to save the tree and its root zone. ACTION: MOTION BY COMMITTEE CHAIR LOOSLEY, SECONDED BY COMMITTEE MEMBER LUCAS, to approve the removal request based on promoting good arboricultural practice only if the above directed action is not feasible and all efforts to preserve the tree and root zone have been exhausted. Motion passed 4-2-1 on the following roll call vote: AYES: BATE, LOOSLEY, LUCS, THURMAN NOES: SOLL, WORTHY ABSENT: O'BRIEN 1744 Royal (Red oak) Joe Silva, applicant, discussed the removal request and the hardscape damage, stating the tree was too close to the walkway, sidewalk and driveway. He discussed previous repairs and stated the roos continued to uplift and destroy his property. He felt the tree continued to create undue hardship. Mr. Combs stated he could not make the findings to allow for removal. Public Comments: Chair Loosley opened the public hearing. Dr. Powers stated he could see reasons to retain the tree, but also understand reasons why the tree might be removed. Chair Loosley closed the public hearing. The Committee discussed the item, agreeing that it was a difficult decision regarding hardship, but felt maintenance and root pruning could mitigate issues and that the tree was significant to the neighborhood. ACTION: MOTION BY COMMITTEE MEMBER LUCAAS, SECONDED BY COMMITTEE MEMBER THURMAN, to deny the request, as they could not make the necessary findings for removal. Motion passed 5-1-1 on the following roll call vote: AYES: BATE, LOOSLEY, LUCAS, THURMAN, WORTHY NOES: SOLL ABSENT: O'BRIEN DRAFT Minutes — Tree Committee Meeting of April 23, 2018 Page 6 NEW BUSINESS It was agreed that Committee Member Worthy will serve as Vice Chair.

I am unsure as to whether the City of San Luis Obispo considers them "Street Trees" or "Private Trees". Neither tree was planted by the City, both are on our property, and there is no earthen bed between the street and the sidewalk. See Photo 1 and Photo 2, attached to Email. The two trees were planted by my father and I many years ago. One is a fan palm (Washingtonia robusta), the other is a London plane tree (Platanus acerifolia). There are three reasons for our wanting to remove them. First, the fan palm was planted directly on top of our utility lines (water and natural gas) running from the street to the house. We fear that eventually, the palm will break those utility lines, necessitating an expensive emergency repair, while presenting a serious hazard from the gas. Second, we wish to place a solar array on the south -facing roof, and solar companies will not move forward until those two trees are removed. A row of Italian cypress trees in our neighbor's yard prevent solar installation on our west -facing roof (which would also produce far less energy). Third, vegetable gardening is very important to us, and we have multiple raised -beds in the back yard in which we have been growing vegetables. However, surrounding trees, especially a group of Catalina cherries in Meadow Park, planted by the City less than three feet from our fence, have grown to the point that they now shade our garden so much that vegetables no longer get enough sun. See Photo 3, attached to Email. Therefore, we want to move our vegetable garden to the south side (Corrida Drive side) of the house, so that we can expand it and have adequate sun for good vigor and production. We cannot install a solar array on our house or move the vegetable garden to the f-ontyard without removing those two trees. We understand that the City may require that replacements be planted when "private trees" are removed. We have two questions regarding this: First, does the palm tree require replacement? Second, can replacement trees be planted in the back yard? We will have space in the back yard once the vegetable garden is moved up front, and if we re -plant in the front, that would negate the reasons for taking them out in the first place. Our plan is to remove the trees, then build a new front fence about seven feet back from the sidewalk; then install a raised bed vegetable garden behind the fence, with shrubs and succulents planted up front in the space between the fence and the sidewalk. We prefer to plant fruit trees as replacements. Also, in the past two years, we have planted a Catalina ironwood and a toyon in the backyard. See Photo 4, attached to the Email. Could those recent plantings be the replacement trees for the two we seek to remove. That's a long -shot, I'm guessing, but it doesn't hurt to ask! Of note also, is that our back yard contains a California sycamore that 1 planted with my father in 1979. It is now the biggest tree in the Meadow Park area! It can be seen in the back -left of the house in Photo 1. Thank you foryo u r consideration of this matter!

It is close to the rear of my residence & quite large. I am very concerned that it is diseased & may fall onto my house and/or my neighbor's house. I have an opinion from Chris, a consultant for Greenvale Tree Service, that this quite possible since a second Redwood standing next to the remaining one fell recently, damaging my shed & fence. The fallen tree was diagnosed with fungus & dry rot, causing it to break off & fall. I would like to handle this matter promptly. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Carla Pohl 918 Vista Del Arroyo San Luis Obispo, CA 93405
