CA 92660 July 24, 2006 (949) 760 -6231 Email: susantdalyksbe¢lobal.net Mr. John Conway City of Newport Beach 1935 Newport Blvd. Newport Beach, CA 92658 Dear John: Enclosed you will find my signed petition to remove 2 Ficus rubignosa trees from our property at 2245 Port Carlisle Place. I have the signatures of every property owner on Port Carlisle with the exception of the Gallivan's who are out of town and of the one rental on our block. At your suggestion, I also contacted the Seawind Homeowners' Association. They indicated that they will not address these trees as they are a city matter. You will also find a digital picture of the 2 trees in question. We have lived in this home for 21 years and have pursued removing these nuisance trees • many times only to be denied by the city. These trees have become such a problem for us and the town that we must have them removed before they do irreparable damage. This year they are shedding berries and leaves as never before. They are drawing flies and other insects and are a hazard to all children and other residents of the neighborhood. I will reforest with the advice of Mr. Mike Mahoney. Thank you for your help in this matter Sincerely, Ims. Susan T. Daly • CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH General Services Department Tree Removal or Reforestation Application Per City Council Policy G -1 (Retention or Removal of City Trees), I am requesting a tree removal(s) to be reviewed by staff and submitted to either the Parks, Beaches, and Recreation Commission for consideration at a future meeting or the appropriate City approving authority.
