Upon inspection, Terry has determined that 6 Black Cottonwood trees are permitted to be" removed". The 6 trees can
be made into wildlife habitat stems.
Three Cottonwood trees (12, 14, 23 inch diameters)are leaning into the common area.
The three other Cottonwood trees (23, 17, and 14 inches diameters) have decay/ poor structure.
The removals can be mitigated with planting 3 Big leaf maples, 2 inch caliper size, on the east side near the playground.
You will need to contact Angelea Weihs, Assistant Planner, at 425-430-7312, to determine which permits are required
for the tree removal and replacement prior to scheduling the work.
I have included a map with the approximate locations of the 6 trees permitted to be made into wildlife habitat stems.
Please feel free to contact me if I can be of further assistance at 425-430-6698.

LOCATION: Two parcels east of 716 S 32nd PL
DESCRIPTION: The applicant is requesting a Critical Areas Exemption to remove 6 dead/dying
trees on two tracts (parcel numbers 9485750000 and 9485750560) just east of
the single family home located at 716 S 32nd PL, within Winsper Development
(See Exhibit 1). The tracts are approximately 121,140 square feet and contain
wetlands. The proposed tree removal will be located within the wetland and
wetland buffer. Our city arborist, Terry Flatley, has confirmed that the trees are
dead and/or dying and are in danger of falling on the home, fencing, and/or
sidewalk (See Exhibit 2). City staff recommends as a condition of approval that
the removals be mitigated with replacement planting of 3 Big leaf maples,
minimum size 2 caliper inches, on the east side of the wetland tract near the
playground, per Terry Flatley's comments (See Exhibit 2).
CRITICAL AREA: Wetland and Wetland Buffer
EXEMPTION JUSTIFICATION: Renton Municipal Code, Section 4-3-050C.3.c.iii. Dangerous Trees: Removal of
non-native invasive ground cover or weeds listed by King County Noxious Weed
Board or other government agency or dangerous trees, as defined in Chapter
4-11 RMC which have been approved by the City and certified dangerous by a
licensed landscape architect, or certified arborist, selection of whom to be
approved by the City based on the type of information required. Limited to
cutting of dangerous trees; such hazardous trees shall be retained as large
woody debris in critical areas and/or associated buffers, where feasible.
