Project Name: Tree Removal
Remove 14 trees adjacent to the building in a narrow parking strip within the Shoreline Buffer Zone of
Spring Brook Creek. None of the trees are landmark size. Trees are in contact with the structure and in
places are causing damage. Poor overhead clearance for vehicle access has also been an issue. The
trees are an unsuitable species for the location and outgrowing the space. It is the recommendation of
a certified arborist to remove them.
An equal number of trees will be planted will be planted as a replacement as recommended in the
attached report for Tree Solutions Consulting Arborists.
Anticipated dates of work: removal will be done as soon as a permit is received and landscaping
company is available. Replanting will be done as soon after as possible. Preferably project will be
completed by June 1, 2017.
The use of the property will not change.
Estimated project cost is:
The trees to be remove are approximately 75 feet from the Ordinary High Water Mark.
The proposed new plantings are approximately 40 feet from the Ordinary High Water Mark.
The nature of the existing shoreline is a naturalized, high bank for a creek.
