The application states that this creates a fire hazard, which can only be mitigated by removing the tree. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: high Density Multi Family Residential; ZONING: R-3; MAP: 39 1 E 14 CB;TAX LOT: 1900 SUBMITTAL DATE: March 25, 2021 DEEMED COMPLETE DATE: April 1, 2021 STAFF APPROVAL DATE: April 30, 2021 DEADLINE TO APPEAL (4:30 p.m.): May 12, 2021 FINAL DECISION DATE: May 13, 2021 APPROVAL EXPIRATION DATE: November 13, 2022 DECISION This proposal is to remove one pine trees from the property at 2110 Siskiyou Blvd, The subject property is lot I of "The Court on Mary Jane" a planned community. The property is located at the intersection of Mary Jane Ave and Siskiyou Blvd. The subject parcels is a 0.03 acre property and is zoned R-3 Multifamily Residential, The property is developed a 0.34 acre common area and a total often dwellinf4s in a mix of duplexes and fourplexes. The tree proposed for removal is a single pine tree. It is unclear if the tree was originally a part of the planned landscaping plan or was a volunteer. The edge of the trunk of the tree is less than a foot away ftom the wooden picket fence and pergola of the subject property. The tree is identified as a nearly eight -inch DBH and roughly twenty feet in height. There is no indication that the tree is in poor health, but its location poses an unacceptable hazard both interms of vision clearance area for the vehicle exit onto Mary Jane, but also in terms of fire risk. The application includes a number of photos showing the location of the subject tree. To be deemed a "hazard tree" the condition or location of the tree must clearly present a public safety hazard TREE-2020-00147 2110 Siskiyou Blvd./aa Page 1 (i.e,, that the tree is likely to fall and injure persons or property). Or, that there is a foreseeable danger of property damage to an existing structure or facility, and, that such hazard or danger cannot reasonably be alleviated by treatinent, relocation or pruning. Based on the materials provided by the applicant and a site visit by staff", it is reasonable to conclude that the subject tree is indeed posing a hazard and therefore ought to be removed. During the public comment period staff received no input from the public, At the April regular meeting of the Tree Commission did not meet due to a lack of quorum. Staff finds that the tree, due to its location, size, poses an unacceptable hazard to the property that cannot be reasonably alleviated by means other than removal and replacement. Upon recognizing the hazard posed to property Staff finds the application with attached conditions has sufficiently demonstrated compliance with all applicable approval criteria. The criteria for a Tree Removal Permit are described in AMC Chapter 18.5.7.0403 as follows: T. 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 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. Staff finds that Planning Action #,m-FF,.-2020-00147, 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-2020-00147 is approved. If any one or snore of the following conditions are found to be invalid, for any reason whatsoever, then Planning Action. #TP,EE-2020-00 147 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 trees, of an appropriate stature, shall be planted on. site within one (1) year of issuance of this decision.

This isone often units which were built lnaserni-cincie. The pine is beautiful and should have been planted on an acre of land well away from buildings. It was not a good decision to plant this tree in this spot; a decision rnade a while ago based on the size ofthe tree today. The branches are currently hanging over the back-patio~spergola and nearly touch the house. On, the other side the tree was growing into, the community semii- circle drive which all townhouse owners must use to exit the uinit. |tisalso very close tothe community sidewalk. |mother words, the tree obstructs the driver's view and scratches cars. Upon reading the Tree Removal Permit frequently asked questions | realized that the actions being taken bymyself and the previous owner and other H(}Amembers, included removing lower branches and branches over the pergo,la, are very close to actions stated in the Tree Removal permit asnot permitted. | believe this tree to be a fire hazard and m vehicular hazard. | asked permission at the February HOA meeting of the HOA members to pursue getting it removed, and they voted to allow this process tobegin. The Tree Removal Permit document referred to above led me to know that because this is a multi -family zone, I must ask permission for a tree greater than six -inches.
