It is a vacant parcel. The tree removal request is to remove five poplar trees of various sizes, Tree #1 is a 25-inch in diameter at breast height (DBH) poplar tree which has previously been burned and is situated on the west property line. Tree #2, is a 14-inch DBH poplar tree which is towards the middle of the parcel. Tree #3 is an 8-inch DBH poplar tree, tree #4 is a ten-inch DBH poplar tree and tree #5 is an II-inch DBH poplar tree. Trees 3 - 5 are along the eastern property line and are pushing up the existing fence, Trees 1, 3 - 5 are considered hazardous as they are damaging the shared fence and in particular tree # 1 has significant damage from a structure fire on the adjacent parcel. Tree #2 is not hazardous as its proximity to the property lines and due to the lack of structures on this parcel does not pose a danger to persons or property. The applicant has not proposed to mitigate the removal of the trees. According to the municipal code, removal of hazardous trees does not require mitigation but the removal of non-hazardous trees does require mitigation, The removal of tree #2 will trigger the mitigation requirements addressed in Ashland Municipal Code, Land Use Ordinance 18.61.080, Since the applicant does not have irrigation or a landscape plan at the vacant parcel there are other mitigation options that the applicant may choose to use, The applicant may mitigate with a tree that will achieve similar size and stature at maturity as the one removed on other property under their ownership, Or, the applicant may pay into the Tree Fund an amount equivalent to the estimated cost of buying and planting the trees which otherwise would have been required to be planted on site or a minimum of $400,00, A condition to this effect has been added. Prior to the removal of the trees the applicant shall submit their proposed method of 'mitigation' to the Planning Division so as it may be part of the record of decision.

After examining the materials presented, I have determined that the application is incomplete because the information listed below was not provided. Incomplete applications are subject to delay in accordance with ORS 227,178. The application cannot be further processed and deemed complete until the missing information is submitted or the applicant indicates that the missing information will not be provided. The following items should be addressed by April 2, 2010, 1. Site Plan - A Site Plan delineating the location of the tree(s) proposed for removal is required for a complete application per Ashland Municipal Code, Land Use Ordinance 18.61.050, (See attached - highlighted in yellow). The Site Plan is required to be drawn to scale, contain the number, size, species and location of the tree(s) proposed for removal. 2. Findings - Written findings provided by the applicant are your burden of proof to address the required criteria for tree removal permits. It is unclear ifthe tree(s) proposed for removal are being classified by you or your arborist as a Hazard Tree or a Non-Hazard Tree (See attached- highlighted in yellow) In reviewing the application for completeness, the following inconsistencies with the applicable standards and approval criteria were identified, 1. Number of trees proposed for removal unclear - From my site visit it is clear that there is the large cottonwood which has burned, but your narrative states that other trees will be removed as well. There are at least three other large trees in the vicinity of similar size - are these also proposed for removal? 2. Mitigation - As required by the Ordinance, mitigation may be required. The applicant's findings are to address whether mitigation is proposed, Community Development Dept. 20 E.
