FINDINGS & ORDERS
PLANNING ACTION: TREE-2018-00041
SUBJECT PROPERTY: 1046-1056 E Main Street
APPLICANT: Kyle Bartell
OWNER: Don Skillman
DESCRIPTION: A request for the removal of a 34-inch diameter at breast height (DBH) Giant
Sequoia, The application states the tree is causing structural damage, changes in frame work, and
significant concrete cracking and lifting.

SUBMITTAL DATE: December 17, 2018
DEEMED COMPLETE DATE: January 3, 2019
STAFF DECISION DATE: January 24, 2019
DEADLINE TO APPEAL (4:30 p.m.): February 5, 2019
FINAL DECISION DATE: February 6, 2019
APPROVAL EXPIRATION DATE: August 6, 2020
DECISION
This proposal is to remove a 34-inch diameter at breast height and 65-feet tall Sequoia tree. The tree is
located on the south side of the building, east of the parking area.
The subject property is located on the south side of East Main, and is zoned R-3 (High -Density, Multi -
Family Residential). The property abuts R-2 zoning to the west and R-3 zoning to the east and North. The
property is 0.32 acres in size and rectangular in shape.
According to the application, the tree is causing significant concrete cracking and lifting. The units are
built on a solid slab of concrete and the tree is starting to cause structural damage and changes in the frame
work. The property owners have attempted to grind down the concrete and patch the cracks. However, the
door and frame are being compromised by "the very invasive root system of a large fast-growing tree
planted much too close to the building." The applicant mentions root pruning is not a common practice
and would likely increase the potential hazard by cutting major anchor roots on the back side of the tree.
The tree is located within 10 feet of two large mature trees that are better suited for the site.
The Tree Comrnission's January meeting was cancelled due to lack of quorum, so they did not review this
application.
In staffs assessment, the tree removal as proposed fully meets the "tree that is a hazard" criteria.
The criteria for a Tree Removal Permit are described in AMC Chapter 18.5.7.040.B as follows:
1. Hazard Tree. A Hazard Tree Removal Permit shall be granted if the approval authority finds that the application meets all of the
following criteria, or can be made to conform through the imposition of conditions.
a. The applicant must demonstrate that the condition or location of the tree presents a clear public safety hazard (i.e,, likely to fall
TREE-2018-00041
1046-1056 E Main St/fk
Page 1
and injure persons or property) or a foreseeable danger of property damage to an existing structure or facility, and such hazard
or danger cannot reasonably be alleviated by treatment, relocation, or -pruning. See definition of hazard tree in part 18.6.
b. The City may require the applicant to mitigate for the removal of each hazard tree pursuant to section 18.5.7.050. Such
mitigation requirements shall be a condition of approval of the permit.
2. Tree That is Not a Hazard. A Tree Removal Permit for a free that is not a hazard shall be granted if the approval authority finds that
the application meets all of the following criteria, or can be made to conform through the imposition of conditions.
a. The free is proposed for removal in order to permit the application to be consistent with other applicable Land Use Ordinance
requirements and standards, including but not limited to applicable Site Development and Design Standards in part 18.4 and
Physical and Environmental Constraints in part 18.10.
b. Removal of the free will not have a significant negative impact on erosion, soil stability, flow of surface waters, protection of
adjacent frees, or existing windbreaks.
C. Removal of the tree will not have a significant negative impact on the tree densities, sizes, canopies, and species diversity within
200 feet of the subject property. The City shall grant an exception to this criterion when alternatives to the tree removal have
been considered and no reasonable alternative exists to allow the property to be used as permitted in the zone.
d. Nothing in this section shall require that the residential density to be reduced below the permitted density allowed by the zone. In
making this determination, the City may consider alternative site plans or placement of structures of alternate landscaping
designs that would lessen the impact on trees, so long as the alternatives continue to comply with the other provisions of this
ordinance.
e. The City shall require the applicant to mitigate for the removal of each tree granted approval pursuant to section 18.5.7.050,
Such mitigation requirements shall be a condition of approval of the permit.
Planning Action #TREE-2018-00041, a request to remove one hazard tree, complies with all applicable
City ordinances with the imposition of the conditions attached below. Therefore, Planning Action #TREE-
2018-00041 is approved. If any one or more of the following conditions are found to be invalid, for any
reason whatsoever, then Planning Action #TREE-2018-00041 is denied. The following are the conditions
and they are attached to the approval:
1. That all proposals of the applicant shall be conditions of approval unless otherwise specifically
modified herein.
2. That one (1) mitigation tree shall be planted on site within one -(I) year of issuance of this decision.
3. That a mitigation tree shall be planted at a minimum of a V/2- inch caliper consistent with the
requirements of AMC 18.5.7.050.

Dear city of Ashland planning department,
Located approximately 50" from the front door of apartment 1046 East main street, is a
giant sequoia with a DBH of 3,4inches and an approximant height of 65 feet. The tree in
question for removal is causing significant concrete cracking and lifting. The units are built on a
solid slab of concrete and the tree is starting to cause structural damage and changes in the
frame work.
The idea of mitigating the problem was the first step, by grinding down the concrete and
patching the cracks to alleviate the trip hazards to the occupants. However, this proved to be a
temporary patch as the door and frame are becoming comprised by the very invasive root
system of a large fast-growing tree planted much to close to the building. Although root pruning
is not a common practice or recommended if done in this, situation, I feel like it would only
escalate the potential hazard by cutting major anchor roots on the back side of the tree, taking
the strong prevailing winds into consideration.
Given the unfortunate facts that this tree is causing significant damage and creating a
hazard to the area, I feel like removal is the necessary step in protecting the building for the
long term. The tree being removed is located within 10 feet of two large mature trees in better
suited location on the property and minimizes the overall looks in the landscape.
Thank you,
Kyle Bartell
