Discussion
Staff received the attached correspondence from Ms. Linda Kanen requesting
that one Desert Gum tree not be removed adjacent to her residence.
The Urban Forester completed a Tree Inspection Report (copy attached) and ,the
Park and Tree Maintenance Superintendent concurred with the report that
recommends that the tree should be removed due to major hardscape damages.
• The tree cannot be retained due to the significant amount of root mass that must
be removed in the hardscape replacement process. The tree is also located
directly over the sewer line.

Additionally, this location was identified by the General Services Department's
Concrete Crew Supervisor as a location that presents a liability to the City
relative to hardscape damage and has been included in the upcoming hardscape
replacement program.
There have been two large claim disbursements by the City in the same vicinity
to property owners in the amounts of $2390 on Pembroke Lane and $6370 on
Anita Lane as a direct result of parkway trees damaging. private property.
Ms. Kanen has received a copy of this report and a notice of the September 3
Commission meeting.
Very respectfully,
David E. Niederhaus
