Henning ) Vanessa Dolbee Sabrina Mirante Jennifer Cisneros Angelea Weihs Z f 2 DESCRIPTION: The applicant is requesting approval of a Routine Vegetation Management Permit in order to remove two "landmark" (thirty caliper inches or greater) Big leaf Maple trees on the property located at 17848111th Ave SE. The lot is within the Residential -8 (R-8) Zone and is 9,379 square feet. There is an existing single family home on site. Tree number 1, as identified in the arborist report prepared by arborist Daniel Maple, is located on the northwest corner of the lot. The arborist notes that the tree appears to be in general good health; however, ivy has spread to encompass approximately 50% of the tree, and a hollow with moderate decay exists at the point where the 3 co -dominate trunks attach to the main trunk. In addition, the driveway covers approximately 40% of the roots of this tree, and the tree is damaging the driveway. This tree has a moderate risk rating. Daniel Maple states that removing the ivy and installing a cable system will help strengthen the union as a short term option; however, as a long term solution he recommends removing the tree. Tree number 2 is located on the northeast corner of the lot. The arborist indicates that this a high risk tree, with decay in the trunk that exceeds 50% of the trunk area. Partial crown failure and deadwood was noted, as well as a cavity with fungal growth on the south side of the root crown. Ivy has spread to approximately 80% of the tree. Daniel Maple recommends removal of both trees 1 and 2 in the next 3 months, or before the next significant storm. The applicant is proposing to retain five existing trees on site, including one Pine tree, two Cherry trees, and two Pear trees. Per RMC 4-4-130C.9.d.i, the lot requires a minimum of 4 trees to meet tree density requirements. 21(, Page 1 of 3 DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNk i f CITY OF AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Rentor PLANNING DIVISION ROUTINE VEGETATION MANAGEMENT PERMIT EVALUATION FORM & DECISION DATE: March 22, 2016 PROJECT NUMBER: LUA16-000174, RVMP PROJECT NAME: 5oth Tree Removal Routine Vegetation Managment Permit PROJECT MANAGER: Angelea Weihs, Assistant Planner OWNER: Soth Ear 17848111th Ave SE Renton, WA 98055-6539 APPLICANT: Saila Ear 17848 111th Ave SE Renton, WA 98055-6539 LOCATION: 17848 111TH AVE SE DESCRIPTION: The applicant is requesting approval of a Routine Vegetation Management Permit in order to remove two "landmark" (thirty caliper inches or greater) Big leaf Maple trees on the property located at 17848111th Ave SE.

COILSultlll(F Aj-hoists Daniel Maple Forestry Management From The Ground Up EXHIBIT 2 DATE: 02/27/16 Assignment: Client is concerned about the health and safety of 1 Maple front left of the home and 1 Maple back left of the home. A level 2 Risk Assessment with decay testing is requested. Time Frame 5 Years from above date. Purpose: 1) This report is intended to identify trees that pose a risks to the above and neighboring homes, as well as the owners and their guests. 2) provide reasonable mitigation options to reduce risk to acceptable levels. 3) To document tree hazards for obtaining A tree cutting permit if one is required. (additional ISA risk assessment forms are available if needed) Trees: There are 2 trees included in this report #1 is on the right side of the front yard, by the drive. Tree #2 is on the left side of the backyard, behind the shed. Site: Typical Residential site. Soils in front are compacted, with concrete drive over 40% of the roots. No other negative site conditions were noted. Methodology: To evaluate the trees for risk and prepare this report I drew upon my 25+ years of experience in the field of arboriculture and my formal education. Following the protocol established by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Best Management Practices (BMP) for Risk Assessment ANSI A300 part 9. The site was assessed for any noted condition that may have a negative impact on the local forest including but not limited to: 1) history of tree failure (wind throw) 2) Change in Wind Patterns 3) soil depth 4) Soil Hydrology 5) grade changes 6) fungal fruiting bodies/decay pathogens. I performed a level 1 risk assessment and as needed a level 2 risk assessment on the subject trees and: 1. The crown of the trees were examined for current vigor. Inspecting the crown (foliage, buds and branches) for color, density, form, and annual shoot growth, limb dieback and disease. Branches were inspected for cracks and other defects, as well as needs for remedial pruning. 2. The bole or main stem of the tree was inspected for decay, which includes cavities, wounds, fruiting bodies of decay (conks or mushrooms), seams, insects, bleeding, callus development, broken or dead tops, structural defects and unnatural leans. Structural defects include crooks, forks with V-shaped crotches, multiple attachments, and excessive sweep. 3. The root collar and roots were inspected for the presence of decay, insects and/or damage, as well as if they have been injured, undermined or exposed, or original grade has been changed. A level 2 Basic is the standard assessment that is performed by arborlsts in response to a client's request for tree risk assessment. Inspection tools included: binoculars, hypsometer, magnifying glass, mallet, & probe were used. Level 2 advanced: Where Root/Trunk decay was noted, and it was deemed prudent to investigate further, decay drilling for root and trunk decay was included.

Cousultiuu �' rboirst5 Certified Arborist Daniel Maple Risk Assessor Forestry Management From The Ground Up Observation: Tree ##1 Big leaf Maple `Acer macrophyllum" DBH 49" Height 68' Spread 40'. Tree appears to be in general good health and moderate vigor. The driveway covers 40% of the roots and the tree is damaging the driveway. ivy has spread to encompass approx. 50% of the tree. 3 Co -dominate trunks at 6' off the ground and 7 co -dominate trunks at 9' were noted. A hollow exists at the point where the 3 stalks attach to the main trunk, decay testing shows moderate decay at this trunk union. The growth habits suggest the tree was cut at 6' in the past, and the tree we see today is stump sprouts. Removing the ivy and installing a cable system will help strengthen the union and is as short term option. Risk Rating Moderate. Tree #i2 Big leaf Maple "Acer mucrophyllum" DBH 34.5" Height 60' Spread 30'. Ivy has spread to approx. 80% of the tree. Partial crown failure and deadwood was noted. A cavity with fungal growth was noted on the south side of the root crown ("Armillaria" decay pathogen is suspected). Decay testing show average outer wall thickness to is 5.5" the rest of the trunk/root crown is decayed. 1) Tree Trunk Area = 960 2) Decay Area = 490 3) Decay Exceeds 50% Trunk Area. Risk Rating HIGH i ree Condition Summary Tree Species Scientific Name I DBH I Heightl Spread I Decay Risk Recommendation 1 Maple 'Acer macrophyllum" 49" 68'1 40' 1 At Attachment Mod. Remove 0-6 months / Cable Short term option 2 Maple 'Acermacrophyllum" 34,5" 1 60' 1 30' 1 Root Crown High Remove 0-3 months Conclusion: Tree #1 is Ivy covered, co -dominate, has moderate decay at the trunk union and is damaging the driveway. The tree appears to be growing out of an old stump. (stump sprout trees are notorious for failure). Removing the ivy and installing a cable system will add support to the trunk attachments, however this is a short term mitigation option and doesn't address the damage being done to the driveway. Due to the defects noted, the long term the Best Management Plan would be to remove the tree. Tree #2 has a history of failure with like limbs and deadwood in the crown. Decay testing shows advanced decay in the root crown exceeds 50% of the Total Trunk Area. It is probable that tree failure will occur and impact a target, in the weather events common to this region in the time frame stated, consequences would be severe. Risk Rating Is HIGH. Recommendations: Remove trees ##1 and #2 in the next 3 months or before the next significant weather event.

Consult�n Ax }orist5 Certified Arborist Daniel Maple Risk Assessor Forestry Management from The Ground Up DATE: 02/27/16 Prepared for: 5ailar Ear 17648 11111 AV, SE. Renton WA. 98055 Assignment: Client is concerned about the health and safety of 1 Maple front left of the home and 1 Maple back left of the home. A level 2 Risk Assessment with decay testing is requested. Time Frame 5 Years from above date. Purpose: 1) This report is intended to identify trees that pose a risks to the above and neighboring homes, as well as the owners and their guests. 2) provide reasonable mitigation options to reduce risk to acceptable levels. 3) To document tree hazards for obtaining A tree cutting permit if one is required. (additional ISA risk assessment forms are available if needed) Trees: There are 2 trees included in this report #1 is on the right side of the front yard, by the drive. Tree #2 is on the left side of the backyard, behind the shed. Site: Typical Residential site. Soils in front are compacted, with concrete drive over 40% of the roots. No other negative site conditions were noted. Methodology: To evaluate the trees for risk and prepare this report I drew upon my 25+ years of experience in the field of arboriculture and my formal education. Following the protocol established by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Best Management Practices (BMP) for Risk Assessment ANSI A300 part 9. The site was assessed for any noted condition that may have a negative impact on the local forest including but not limited to: 1) history of tree failure (wind throw) 2) Change in Wind Patterns 3) soil depth 4) Soil Hydrology 5) grade changes 6) fungal fruiting bodies/decay pathogens. I performed a level 1 risk assessment and as needed a level 2 risk assessment on the subject trees and: 1. The crown of the trees were examined for current vigor. Inspecting the crown (foliage, buds and branches) for color, density, form, and annual shoot growth, limb dieback and disease. Branches were inspected for cracks and other defects, as well as needs for remedial pruning. 2. The bole or main stem of the tree was inspected for decay, which includes cavities, wounds, fruiting bodies of decay (conks or mushrooms), seams, insects, bleeding, callus development, broken or dead tops, structural defects and unnatural leans. Structural defects include crooks, forks with V-shaped crotches, multiple attachments, and excessive sweep. 3. The root collar and roots were inspected for the presence of decay, insects and/or damage, as well as if they have been injured, undermined or exposed, or original grade has been changed. A level 2 Basic is the standard assessment that is performed by arborists in response to a client's request for tree risk assessment. Inspection tools included: binoculars, hypsometer, magnifying glass, mallet, & probe were used. Level 2 advanced: Where Root/Trunk decay was noted, and it was deemed prudent to investigate further, decay drilling for root and trunk decay was included.

Consultlllg Ari o., ,t5 Certified Arborist Daniel Maple Risk Assessor Forestry Management From The Ground Up Observation: Tree #1 Big leaf Maple `Acer macrophyllum" DBH 49" Height 68' Spread 40'. Tree appears to be in general good health and moderate vigor. The driveway covers 40% of the roots and the tree is damaging the driveway. Ivy has spread to encompass approx. 50% of the tree. 3 Co -dominate trunks at 6' off the ground and 7 co -dominate trunks at 9' were noted. A hollow exists at the point where the 3 stalks attach to the main trunk, decay testing shows moderate decay at this trunk union. The growth habits suggest the tree was cut at 6' in the past, and the tree we see today is stump sprouts. Removing the ivy and installing a cable system will help strengthen the union and is as short term option. Risk Rating Moderate. Tree tit Big leaf Maple "Acer macrophyllum" DBH 34.5" Height 60' Spread 30'. ivy has spread to approx. 80% of the tree. Partial crown failure and deadwood was noted. A cavity with fungal growth was noted on the south side of the root crown ("Armillaria" decay pathogen is suspected). Decay testing show average outer wall thickness to is 5.5" the rest of the trunk/root crown is decayed. 1) Tree Trunk Area = 960 2) Decay Area = 490 3) Decay Exceeds 50% Trunk Area. Risk Rating HIGH Tree Condition Summary Tree Species Scientific Name DBH Height Spread Decay Risk Recommendation 1 Maple 'Acer macrophyllum" 49" 1 68' 1 40' 1 At Attachment Mod. Remove 0-6 months / Cable Short term option 2 Maple "Acer macrophyllum" 34.5" 1 60' 1 30' 1 Root Crown High Remove 0-3 months Conclusion: Tree #1 Is ivy covered, co -dominate, has moderate decay at the trunk union and is damaging the driveway. The tree appears to be growing out of an oid stump. (stump sprout trees are notorious for failure). Removing the ivy and installing a cable system will add support to the trunk attachments, however this is a short term mitigation option and doesn't address the damage being done to the driveway. Due to the defects noted, the long term the Best Management plan would be to remove the tree. Tree #2 has a history of failure with like limbs and deadwood in the crown. Decay testing shows advanced decay in the root crown exceeds 50% of the Total Trunk Area. It is probable that tree failure will occur and impact a target, in the weather events common to this region in the time frame stated, consequences would be severe. Rlsk Rating Is HIGH. Recommendations: Remove trees #1 and #2 in the next 3 months or before the next significant weather event.

Consulting Ax -bo Certified Arborist Daniel Maple Forestry Management From The Ground Up Daniel@Abcconsultingarborists.com 425-328-0445 PO 337 Deer Park WA.99008 Its Risk Assessor ISA -7970A Certified Arborist �.B. C. Cousultill� �Al-bo- is Daniel Maple Forestry Management From The Ground Up Risk Assessor Observation: Tree #1 Big leaf Maple 'Acer macrophyllum"DBH 49" Height 68' Spread 40'. Tree appears to be in general good health and moderate vigor. The driveway covers 40% of the roots and the tree is damaging the driveway. Ivy has spread to encompass approx. 50% of the tree. 3 Co -dominate trunks at 6' off the ground and 7 co -dominate trunks at 9' were noted. A hollow exists at the point where the 3 stalks attach to the main trunk, decay testing shows moderate decay at this trunk union. The growth habits suggest the tree was cut at 6' in the past, and the tree we see today is stump sprouts. Removing the ivy and installing a cable system will help strengthen the union and is as short term option. Risk Rating Moderate. Tree #2 Big leaf Maple "Acer macrophyllum" DBH 34.5" Height 60' Spread 30'. Ivy has spread to approx. 80% of the tree. Partial crown failure and deadwood was noted. A cavity with fungal growth was noted on the south side of the root crown ("Armiilaria" decay pathogen is suspected). Decay testing show average outer wall thickness to is 5.5" the rest of the trunk/root crown is decayed. 1) Tree Trunk Area = 960 2) Decay Area = 490 3) Decay Exceeds 50% Trunk Area. Risk Rating HIGH Tree Lonatt{on Summary Tree Species Scientific Name DBH Height Spread Decay Risk Recommendation 1 Maple 'Acer macrophyNurn" 49" 68' 40' At Attachment Mod. Remove 0-6 months / Cable Short term option 2 Maple 'Acer macrophyllum" 34.5" 60' 30' 4 Root Crown High Remove 0-3 months Conclusion: Tree #1 Is Ivy covered, co-domfnate, has moderate decay at the trunk union and is damaging the driveway. The tree appears to be growing out of an old stump. (stump sprout trees are notorious for failure). Removing the ivy and installing a cable system will add support to the trunk attachments, however this is a short term mitigation option and doesn't address the damage being done to the driveway. Due to the defects noted, the long term the Best Management Plan would be to remove the tree. Tree #2 has a history of failure with like limbs and deadwood in the crown. Decay testing shows advanced decay in the root crown exceeds 50% of the Total Trunk Area. It is probable that tree failure will occur and impact a target, in the weather events common to this region in the time frame stated, consequences would be severe. Risk Rating Is HIGH. Recommendations: Remove trees 01 and #2 in the next 3 months or before the next significant weather event.
