PLANNING ACTION: PA-2014-01286
SUBJECT PROPERTY: 680 Normal
APPLICANT: Nancy McLeod
DESCRIPTION: A Tree Removal Permit request to remove an approximate 10-inch DBH
Maple tree from the side yard of the property located at 680 Normal.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Low-Density Multi-Family; ZONING: R-2;
ASSESSOR'S MAP: 39 lE 15AA TAX LOT: 6803

DECISION
The subject property is located on the east side of Normal Street, approximately 525 feet north of
Siskiyou Blvd., and is zoned R-2, multi-family. The approximately 32,638 square foot, nine-unit
condominium complex, known as Edgewood Townhomes, is mostly covered with parking and the
building footprints, however has meticulously maintained and well established landscaping including
approximately 15 trees of varied species and sizes.
The application proposes to remove a single 10-inch DBH Maple Tree from the front yard of the
common area, just south of unit 680 Normal. -Although the volunteer tree is vigorous and healthy, it has
grown around power lines for the adjacent property, and rubbing on a homeowner's fence. Furthermore,
the applicant is requesting not to mitigate the tree as this particular tree was not identified or proposed
on the 1989 landscape plan, therefore not a required tree.
The City of Ashland's Tree Commission reviewed the proposal at their August 6, 2014 regular meeting,
and in deliberating the request, the commission found that not mitigating then removed tree seems is
appropriate, as there are numerous trees within the immediate vicinity, including a significant Douglas
Fir approximately 30 feet to the west. Therefore then Commission recommends approval of the
application as submitted.
In staff's opinion, the application meets the applicable criteria for a non-hazarderous tree removal, as
there as removal will not cause a loss in tree canopy or coverage as there are many healthy trees on-site,
nor would removal. adversely affect erosion or windbreaks of adjacent properties. Therefore, with the
conditions of approval below, staff approves of the removal request.

rights of way and is causing damage to existing public or private facilities or services and such
facilities or services cannot be relocated or the damage alleviated. The applicant must demonstrate
that the condition or location of the tree presents a clear public safety hazard or a foreseeable danger
of property damage to an existing structure and such hazard or danger cannot reasonably be
alleviated by treatment or pruning.

18.61.084. Such mitigation requirements shall be a condition of approval of the permit.

A. Hazard Tree: The Staff Advisor shall issue a tree removal permit for a hazard tree if the applicant demonstrates that a tree is a
hazard and warrants removal.
1. A hazard tree is a tree that is physically damaged to the degree that it is clear that it is likely to fall and injure persons or
property. A hazard tree may also include a tree that is located within public rights of way and is causing damage to existing
public or private facilities or services and such facilities or services cannot be relocated or the damage alleviated. The
applicant must demonstrate that the condition or location of the tree presents a clear public safety hazard or a foreseeable
danger of property damage to an existing structure and such hazard or danger cannot reasonably be alleviated by treatment

B. Tree that is Not a Hazard: The City shall issue a tree removal permit for a tree that is not a hazard if the applicant demonstrates
all of the following: j
1. The tree is proposed for removal in order to permit the application to be consistent with other applicable Ashland Land Use

Request for permit to cut down tree at 680 Normal Ave.
- - - -
From : Nancy McLeod <nancymcl@jeffnet.org> Wed, Jul 16, 2014 12:00 PM
Subject : Request for permit to cut down tree at 680
Normal Ave.
To : michael pina <michael.pina@ashland.or.us>
I am requesting a city permit to remove a large maple tree that ha become overgrown
and a potential hazard to its site at 680 Normal Avenue, where I reside. Since the
tree is not shown on the 1989 Landscape plan, and it was not apparent when I
bought this condominium 11 years ago, I believe it is a vigorous volunteer. It touches
on my backyard fence, but grows on the Edgewood Town House Association (ETHA)
front lawn community property, which is approximately 30" x 40'. In this same
community area there are also a large, native Douglas Fir tree and a 20' flowering
plum tree.
Three electrical wires from the street touch on this tree, one of which is the main
electrical wire from the street to my neighbor's house. As the tree continues to grow,
it will put pressure on that wire, and eventually break it. Also, a large canopy of the
tree covers 2/3 of the back part of the slanted roof over my second story bedroom,
inhibiting light and air over the roof shingles. This condition lends itself to dampness
and excess growth of moss on the roof as well as an excessive amount of leaves in
the rain gutters. In Autumn, its leaf drop covers the full extent of my 30' x 12' patio
and garden, even clogging the small pond at the extreme opposite end of the yard.
This tree does not contribute to the site landscape design, which was already
complete. Its removal will not have negative effects on soil erosion, flow of surface
waters, or other plant/growth, density, or diversity. In fact, its removal will be
positive in regard to these factors.
The Board of ETHA has al ready approved my request to cut down this tree and has
agreed to pay the cost of so doing.
Sincerely,
Nancy McLeod, Owner
680 Normal Avenue
