I understand the constraints – the tree will become a liability. There just isn’t space for that species choice and
the density of utility conflicts makes it hard to recommend replanting there. However, there is ample room on
the other side of the property (see snip) and there are any number of trees that would work. I would avoid large
stature trees but they would be fine with any of the small stature trees or even some of the medium sized ones
in our list. I’m thinking “Native Flame” Hornbeam, “Sugar Cone” or “Apollo” Maple, “Starlight” Dogwood,
Eastern Redbud, “Vanessa” Persian Parrotia, Japanese Lilac Tree to name but a few. If they have an alternate we
would be happy to consider it.

Hi Ian,
See the attached arborist report regarding a proposed tree removal within Barbee Mill (1009 N 41st Pl). Do you agree
with their assessment and if you did, do you have a recommendation for tree replacement?
Thank you,
