This project consists of the removal of:
• 5 red alders
• 3 big leaf maples
• 2 Western cottonwoods
• 2 Austrian pines
• 5 paper birches
• 1 purple leaf plum
All the trees proposed for removal are either dead, dying, or diseased and have been assessed by a
certified arborist to pose a hazard to people and property if left standing. The arborist has recommended
that the the 2 Austrian pines, 1 Western cottonwood, 4 paper birches, 1 red alder, and 1 purple leaf plum
be reduced to wildlife snags of 10-15’ where possible with the woody debris from these trees to be
retained on site as habitat enhancement. The other 4 red alders, 1 paper birch, 5 big leaf maples, and 1
Western cottonwood are recommended for complete removal with stumps ground to facilitate
landscaping. Please refer to the arborist reports for more detailed plans for each specific tree.
