TITLE: Resolution No. 2021-5: City Council Policy G -Series Revisions (City
Trees) Revisions
ABSTRACT:
City Council G -Series Policies establish definitive standards for the retention, removal,
maintenance, reforestation, trimming, and planting of approved City owned trees. The
G-3 Policy identifies the importance of the preservation of views related to City owned
trees and landscaping. Council policies such as the G -Policies commonly undergo a
regular review for as needed updates. Following several Parks, Beaches and Recreation
Commission Ad Hoc Committee meetings, the proposed revisions to the City Council
Policy G -series were publicly presented and discussed by the full Parks, Beaches, and
Recreation Commission on December 1, 2020. At this meeting, the Commission
accepted the proposed policy revisions and recommended forwarding the policy revisions
to City Council for adoption.
RECOMMENDATION:
a) Determine this action is categorically exempt from the California Environmental
Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Sections 15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15304
(Minor Alterations to Land) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations,
Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3, because the activities are in the classes of projects
which have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment; and
b) Adopt Resolution No. 2021-5, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Newport
Beach, California, Adopting Revised City Council Policies G-1 (Retention, Removal
and Maintenance of City Trees), G-3 (Preservation of Views), and G-6 (Maintenance
and Planting of Parkway Trees).
FUNDING REQUIREMENTS:
There is no fiscal impact related to this item.

DISCUSSION:
The purpose of the City Council G -Series policies is to establish definitive maintenance
standards for the retention, removal, maintenance, reforestation, trimming, and planting
of approved City owned trees. Council Policy G-1 defines the different categories of City
owned trees: Special (with three further sub -sets of trees), Problem and Standard City
owned trees. It also reviews the reasons why City owned trees can be removed and, if
confirmed by staff, how the removal process ensues. Finally, this policy also relates the
mechanism for removals and replacements of Standard Trees through Reforestation,
essentially whereby an applicant can pay to remove and replace City trees following an
approval process.
The G-3 Policy identifies the importance of the preservation of views related to City owned
trees and landscape. The Policy only relates to maintenance, per industry -accepted
standards, of City -owned trees and landscape for view preservation. It also identifies
certain street blocks in Corona Del Mar where trees will not be planted due to potential
public and private view obstruction.
The purpose of Council Policy G-6 is to establish tree maintenance standards, as well as
the planting of City owned trees either by developers or City Staff. This includes a list of
City tree species designated for certain community associations or certain streets within
the City. Also, where a tree species is not designated, a list of approved City trees for
associated parkway widths is included.
Since its last review, various concerns or suggested modifications regarding the G -Series
Policies have been identified by City Staff, Parks, Beaches, and Recreation (PB&R)
Commissioners, and the public. In an effort to conduct a full review of the Council
G -Polices and consider any recommended revisions, PB&R appointed the Ad Hoc
Committee on December 3, 2019 and reaffirmed the Committee at the August 4, 2020
PB&R Commission Meeting. Members of the Ad Hoc Committee included Chair Ignatin,
and Commissioners Howald and Archer, and City Staff. The Ad Hoc Committee met on
February 26, July 23, October 19, and November 9, 2020.
Through the Ad Hoc Committee review process, the Committee was able to identify, and
address concerns raised primarily involving the transparency of tree removal notifications
and to provide clarity in the process to request tree removals and reforestation. A
summary of the proposed substantive changes recommended for the G Policies is as
follows:
The substantive changes in the G-1 Policy include the following:
• Increased the Standard Tree Removal and Reforestation Petition range from a
500 -foot linear to a 500 -foot radius from the tree.
• Standard City trees are now posted 14 days prior to the scheduled removal, unless
an emergency or unsafe condition requires their immediate removal.
15-2
Resolution No. 2021-5: City Council Policy G -Series Revisions (City Trees) Revisions

Page 3
• Special City trees that are proposed for removal will be posted 30 -days prior to the
Commission meeting and will be re -posted following the Commission's decision
for another 30 -days.
• The public or an association that proposes a Special Tree removal, and that Staff
disagrees, must now go through a petition removal process prior to PB&R
Commission review, such as is currently required for Standard City owned Trees.
• Created Flowcharts for ease of understanding the process by the public. These
are referenced in the Policy and linked to the Public Works Website
• Added Basic Risk Assessment as a minimum requirement on all City owned trees
deemed hazardous. Any advanced, Level III Assessment can either be performed
by Staff or directed by Commission.
• Removed Coral Trees off the "Problem Tree List".
The G-3 Policy was reviewed and there are no substantive changes recommended.
The substantive changes in the G-6 Policy included the following:
• Addition of a designated tree list for the Eastbluff Community Association (which
was also reviewed and approved by the Eastbluff HOA).
• Some new tree species or hybrids were added to the Street Tree Designation List,
especially in smaller tree categories. Selected trees eliminated from the Street
Tree Designation List due to lack of availability or being prone to diseases or
insects.
There were some other non -substantive changes made to all these policies, such as
references in the Policy to Municipal Operations Department was changed to Public
Works. Also, rephrasing and grammar edits were made for better understanding.
At the December 1, 2020 PB&R Commission Meeting, Commissioners unanimously
approved the proposed revisions as presented, and recommends that they be presented
to Council for final approval and adoption.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff recommends the City Council find this action is categorically exempt from the
California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Sections 15301 (Existing
Facilities) and 15304 (Minor Alterations to Land) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code
of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3, because the activities are in the classes of
projects which have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment.

EXHIBIT 1 G -I
RETENTION, REMOVAL, AND MAINTENANCE OF CITY TREES
Goal of Policy
To establish and maintain appropriate diversity in tree species and age classes to
provide a stable and sustainable urban forest with an inventory that the City can
reasonably maintain in a healthy and safe condition through the efficient use of City
resources. To require that in approving any tree removal or reforestation request,
the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission ("Commission") shall find that the
tree removal request will not adversely impact the overall inventory, diversity and
age of the City's Urban Forest. To educate the public of the protections of the City's
Urban Forest and guide, in a user-friendly way, the mechanisms in place for tree
replacements.
Purpose
The purpose of this policy is to establish definitive standards for the retention,
removal, maintenance, reforestation, tree trimming standards, and supplemental
trimming of City trees. City trees are an important part of the character and charm
of the entire City and provide environmental benefits as well. Regular care,
trimming, root pruning, maintenance, and programmed replacement are necessary
to preserve this charm while at the same time protecting public views consistent
with City Council Policy G-3, providing personal safety, and preventing public and
private property damage and providing a sustainable urban forest.
The City classifies public trees in one of three categories: Special City Trees,
Problem City Trees, and Standard City Trees.
I. SPECIAL CITY TREES
It is the City's policy to retain Special City Trees ("Special Trees") categorized
as Landmark, Dedicated, or Neighborhood trees, because they have historical
significance, and/ or contribute to, and give character to, a location or to an
entire neighborhood. Landmark, Dedicated, and Neighborhood trees are
identified by species in Attachment 1, and shall hereinafter be collectively
referred to as Special Trees. Trees within these three categories shall be
identified, mapped, recorded and administered by staff for the Commission.
When staff proposed modifications, the Commission shall review the Special
15-7
G-1
Tree list and forward recommendations for additions or deletions to the City
Council for approval.
Landmark Trees are identified as those individual Special Trees that possess
historical significance by virtue of their size, age, location, or species.
Dedicated Trees are Special Trees donated in the memory of specific individuals
or organizations. Updates will be made annually to the City tree inventory
system that correspond to the amended B-17 Policy: Parks, Facilities, and
Recreation Program Donations. Attachment 1 of this Policy will be updated
annually to reflect updates.
Neighborhood Trees are Special Trees that by their unusual size, number, species,
or location lend a special character to a residential, commercial, or business area.
All Special Trees shall be retained, unless there are overriding problems
which will require their removal such as death, disease, interference with
infrastructure, or the creation of a hazardous situation. Prior to considering
the removal of any Special Tree(s), the Public Works Deputy Director, or
designee, shall prepare a report identifying and implementing specific
mitigation measures to retain the tree(s). The report shall include a Tree Risk
Assessment conducted by Staff and/or the City's contracted consulting
arborist. The Tree Risk Assessment may include Level 3: Advanced
Techniques if determined necessary by the City Arborist and/or approved
by Commission. If specific mitigation is unsuccessful or impractical in
retaining a tree(s) then a full staff report shall be made to the Commission
before any further action considering removal is taken. Prior to any removal
of Special Tree(s), the City must comply with the noticing provisions of the
Removal of City Trees Section set forth in Section IV.A. of this Policy, unless a
Special Tree is considered so hazardous as to necessitate an emergency
removal. In the case of emergency removals, the Landscape Manager or the
City Arborist shall have the authority to direct the removal of a hazardous
tree.
Long term, most trees reach maturity and decline, and will be replaced one-
for-one with the same species or the closest equivalent wherever possible. An
alternate species may be recommended by Staff if the same species is
unavailable and will be subject to approval by the Commission.
2
15-8
G-1
During normal sidewalk, curb, and street repair activity requiring root
pruning, all steps shall be taken to retain Special Trees. If tree roots are to be
pruned in association with sidewalk, curb, and gutter improvements,
sufficient timing in advance must be planned to ensure that pruning will not
destabilize or kill the tree. If both sides of a Special Tree's roots are to be
pruned, one side should be pruned at minimum two years in advance of the
other side depending upon the species and other related factors. If root
pruning methods are not practical and/ or critical to the health of the tree,
then alternate or special hardscape improvements should be considered by
the City in order to retain the tree providing that these measures are practical,
costs are reasonable, and that they comply with Americans with Disabilities
Act (ADA) standards. All proposed root pruning or other tree treatment shall
be evaluated and approved by the City Arborist.
Special Trees may be considered for removal in conjunction with a City
Council -approved beautification project utilizing the Removal of City Trees
procedures as noted in Section W.A. of this Policy.
II. PROBLEM CITY TREES
A Problem City Tree ("Problem Tree") is defined as a tree that by virtue of its
species is known to cause excessive hardscape or utility damage due to its
excessive root system. The following trees are defined as Problem Trees:
• Ficus nitida (Indian Laurel Fig)
• Ficus rubiginosa (Rusty Leaf Fig)
• Ficus benjamina (Weeping Fig)
• Fraxinus uhdei (Shamel Ash)
• Cupaniopsis anacardioides (Carrotwood)
• Liquidambar styraciflua (American Sweet Gum)
• Schinus terebinthifolius (Brazilian Pepper)
Problem Trees shall not be designated as City parkway trees on the Street
Designation Tree List of City Council Policy G-6, unless they are Special Trees.
3
15-9
G-1
Problem Trees that are not designated Special Trees may be removed for the
following reasons:
A. The Problem Tree has had a repeated history of damaging public or
private sewers, water mains, roadways, sidewalks, curbs, walls, fences,
underground utilities, or foundations based on City records or other
competent and reliable authority. Water or sewer blockage that results from
tree roots and causes significant documented private property damage
(greater than $1,000.00) may be sufficient criterion for tree removal; or
B. The Problem Tree has had a repeated history of significant
interference with street or sidewalk drainage, despite specific treatment by
the City to alleviate repeated damage; or
C. The Problem Tree has created, in the opinion of the City Arborist, a
view impediment that cannot be resolved by normal nor alternative tree
trimming procedures.
Problem Trees may be proposed for removal by either staff or private
property owners. The City Arborist has the authority to remove Problem
Trees. No more than 50 Problem Trees may be removed per year by staff
under the above criteria without special approval of the Commission.
Replacement trees of a minimum 36 -inch box size shall be planted if funding,
availability and growth space permits.
Staff is responsible for notifying the adjacent property owner, the legally
established homeowners association, if applicable, and the Councilperson of
the district where the removal is proposed, of the intent to remove a Problem
Tree. The decision by the City Arborist to remove a problem tree is final
unless called up by at least one Councilperson. The City Arborist shall report
the removal of Problem Trees under the above criteria on a monthly basis to
the Commission. The cost to remove and replace Problem Trees will be the
sole responsibility of the City based on funding, availability and growth
space, except for Category C (view).
A City tree which is located on City real property (parkways, parks, other
4
15-10
G-1
City -owned property) and not designated as a Special or Problem Tree is
designated as a Standard City Tree ("Standard Tree"). It is the City's policy to
retain Standard Trees unless removal is necessary for one of the following
reasons:
A. The City tree has had a repeated history of damaging public or
private sewers, water mains, roadways, sidewalks, curbs, walls, fences,
underground utilities, or foundations based on City records or other
competent and reliable authority. Water or sewer blockage that results
from City tree roots and causes significant public or private property
damage (greater than$1,000.00) may besufficient criterion for tree removal;
or
B. The City tree has had a repeated history of significant interference
with street or sidewalk drainage; or
C. The City tree is dead, diseased, dying, or hazardous, and presents a
liability to the City. A dead tree is one that has been assessed by the City
Arborist and found to have deceased. Diseased trees are defined as those
trees that cannot be cured by current arboricultural methods, are in an
advanced state of decline, and have no prospect of recovery. Dying trees are
those that have no prospect of recovery. Hazardous trees are defined as those
that are defective, have a potential to fail, and would cause damage to
persons and property upon failure. The City Arborist will perform a Level 2:
Basic, Tree Risk Assessment whenever a tree is identified as hazardous. The
assessment will identify: structural defects of the tree, parts of the tree most
likely tofail, targets where imminent personal injury or property damage may
result with tree failure, and procedures or actions necessary to mitigate the
hazard. After assessment, the City Arborist will expeditiously convey his
written findings and recommendations to the Landscape Manager for
evaluation. If the Landscape Manager agrees with the City Arborist findings
to remove a tree, the hazardous tree will be removed without further delay.
In the case of imminent tree failure, the Landscape Manager or the City
Arborist shall have the authority to direct the emergency removal of a
hazardous tree without further approvals; or
D. The tree(s) have been requested to be removed in conjunction with a
City Council -approved City, commercial, neighborhood, or home owners'
5
15-11
5w -
association
association beautification program; or
E. The tree(s) have been requested to be removed in conjunction with a
commercial or residential project. Approval will only be granted if the City
tree unreasonably impedes the planned construction. In these cases, the
applicant will coordinate and assume all costs for the removal and
replacement. Replacements will be a minimum of 36 -inch box size, but larger
sizes may be required at the Landscape Manager's discretion.
F. The City Manager, upon the advice of the Public Works Deputy
Director, City Attorney, Risk Manager or the Traffic Engineer, shall have the
authority to remove individual Problem or Standard Trees to resolve claims
or safety issues.
IV. REMOVAL OF CITY TREES
A flowchart detailing tree removal procedures is available on the Public Work's
website: www.newportbeachca.gov/government/departments/public-
works/ municipal -operations
The initiation to remove City tree(s) may be made by the staff of the Public
Works Department, a home owners' association, or a private property owner
by submitting an application to the City Arborist, utilizing the City Tree
Removal form available on the Public Works website:
www.newportbeachca.gov/ government/ departments / public -
works/ municipal -operations
The City will replace all trees removed in accordance with the Standard Trees
removal criteria on a one for one basis, as funding, availability and growth
space permits. Replacement trees will be a minimum of a 36 -inch boxed size.
If 36 -inch boxed trees are not available or funding or space constraints
prevent planting of a 36 -inch boxed tree, then the largest tree available for the
space available will be planted. The full costs of removal and replacement of
all City Tree(s) will be the sole responsibility of the City, unless an applicant
voluntarily pays for a new tree(s), or desires to upgrade to a box size larger
than a 36 -inch box as a replacement (if available), then the resident will be
responsible for the difference in price.

V. REFORESTATION OF CITY TREES
A. Description of Reforestation
Reforestation is defined as the concept of systematically replacing
Problem or Standard Trees which are creating hardscape and/ or view
problems and cannot be properly trimmed, pruned or modified to
alleviate the problem(s) they create; or those which have reached their
full life and are declining in health; or are simply the wrong species of
trees for the planted location.
It is recognized and acknowledged that many City trees were planted
11
15-17
NO
years ago and in some cases were planted with specific species that
when fully mature cause damage to curb, gutter, sidewalk or
underground utilities. Within the geographical boundaries of certain
view neighborhoods, City street trees may encroach into blue water
views from public and private property depending on the length of
time since the trees were last trimmed, or the age and height of the
trees. In other cases, the wrong species of tree was planted originally
and simply does not conform to the current treescape or may represent
a safety hazard. The City Street Tree Designation List and the City
Parkway Tree Designation List attached to City Council Policy G-6 reflect
an effort by the City to designate appropriate tree species that will not
cause future problems.
The City understands the importance of trees and the beauty they bring
to a community, and desires to continually improve the urban forest
through reforestation. In areas where City trees have been removed
through City initiation, the City will endeavor to replace the trees one
for one with the appropriate street tree.
B. Application for Reforestation
Individual private property owners, as well as home owners
associations, may apply for single or multiple tree reforestations in
their respective area by submitting a request to the Landscape Manager
for consideration by the Commission that meets the following
requirements:
• The proposed area must have clearly defined contiguous
geographical boundaries that include the tree(s) proposed for
removal and replacement, street address(es), block number(s), or
other geographical information. This Section applies to
individual and group requests.
• Residential communities, neighborhoods, or business
organizations who apply for reforestation must submit a petition
signed by a minimum of 60% of City of Newport Beach property
owners within the area defined for reforestation. The petition
content must be approved and dated by City staff prior to
12
15-18
G-1
distribution by the petitioner. The staff -approved petition must
be distributed by the petitioner to all private property owners
(within a radius of 500 feet in all directions from the location of the
proposed reforestation). Signatures by non -property owners are
not acceptable for petition purposes, and there may be no more
than one signature per property. All petition signatures shall be
verified by City staff for property owner status of the person(s)
signing the petition.
• Individual private property owners not residing within a home
owners' association area may submit individual requests for
reforestations. The applicant must submit a petition signed by a
minimum of 60% of all City of Newport Beach private property
owners within a radius of 500 feet in all directions from the
location of the proposed reforestation site. The petition content
must be approved and dated by staff prior to distribution. All
petition signatures shall be verified by City staff for private
property owner status of the person(s) signing the petition.
• As an alternative to the above requirements, areas represented
by a home owners' association may submit a resolution of the
Board of Directors formally requesting a reforestation with a
statement that all members of the homeowners' association
affected have been officially notified and given an appropriate
opportunity to respond before the Board voted on the request.
Individual private property owners living within a home
owners' association with mandatory association membership
must petition for reforestation through their respective
association.
• A written agreement must be submitted to the Parks, Beaches and
Recreation Commission by the petitioning sponsor (individual
private property owner(s) or group) to pay 100% of the costs of
the removal and replacement of the public tree(s) in advance of
any removal activity. The actual removal and replanting will be
coordinated by the Public Works Department, Municipal
Operations Division. The total costs shall include only the
contractor's removal and replacement costs and be paid in
13
15-19
G-1
advance of any removal actions.
• The replacement tree(s) for reforestation shall be an appropriate
tree that meets the criteria of the City's Street Tree Designation
List or the CityParkway Tree Designation List as identified inCity
Council Policy G-6, or the applicant ,person, group, or
organization) must request and obtain approval from the
Commission of the designation of a different tree species prior to
submitting any reforestation request for a tree species other than
the designated street tree, or an appropriate species based on the
City Tree Designation Lists. This Section applies to individual or
group requests.
• There shall be a minimum of a one for one replacement of all
trees removed in reforestation projects. Replacement trees shall
be a minimum size of 36 -inch boxed trees, unless the parkway
space will not accommodate a 36 -inch boxed tree or a tree cannot
be planted due to planting restrictions contained in City Council
Policy G-6. Per the Landscape Manager's discretion, a larger
sized box tree may be required if it is replacing a tree of
significant size or value in the City's inventory and ample
planting space is available. If there is not room for the
replacement tree(s) at a specific site as designated by City
Council Policy G-6, then the replacement tree(s) shall be planted
in a public area in the same neighborhood at the option of the
petitioner. This Section applies to individual or group requests.
• Reforestation requests must be completed and submitted in a
timely manner by the petitioner. Petitions that are dated more
than 90 days past the date stamped by staff before distribution
will not be forwarded to the Commission for consideration. The
Landscape Manager may extend this timeframe at his or her
discretion. The completed reforestation application will go to the
Commission to decide whether to accept or deny the requested
reforestation. The decision of the Commission on reforestation
requests will be considered final unless called up by at least one
Councilmember or the City Manager.
14
15-20
G-1
• Trees being considered for Reforestation by the Commission shall be
posted with a minimum 8" x 5" placard at least 14 calendar days
prior to the scheduled meeting. The placard shall also note a Staff
contact number and a date on which it was posted.
• The City shall require the proper care and watering of
replacement trees by the reforestation petitioner to ensure their
proper growth and development as outlined in City Council
Policy G-6. Section 13.090.030 of the Municipal Code outlines
what is expected of property owners in regards to proper care of
parkway trees adjacent to their property.
V1. TREE MAINTENANCE
The City will endeavor to fund the care of the Urban Forest to the highest
level possible through the efficient use of regular tree trimming, root pruning,
root barrier and pesticide programs in accordance with City Council Policy
G-6. Section 13.08.040 of the Municipal Code prohibits any person from
tampering with City trees.
VII. ENCROACHMENT AND DEMOLITION PERMITS
All encroachment permits (permits for private property development which
are proposed to install improvements in the City right of way) or demolition
permits that involve the removal or replacement of City tree(s) must be
specifically noticed by the property owner to City staff prior to the building
and/ or demolition permit process whenever possible. The proposed
construction plans must indicate preservation of existing City trees wherever
possible (except trees that are dead, dying, or in an advanced state of decline).
If the proposed development requires the removal of City trees (that are not
dead, dying or in decline), the property owner must submit a tree removal
form to the Landscape Manager, pay for all related tree removal and one-for-
one replacement costs, and meet all provisions of City Council Policies L-2
and L-6 and City Municipal Code Sections 13.08 and 13.09, or any successor
policies or sections. Approval or disapproval of all tree
removal/ replacement requests associated with encroachment and
demolition permits will be the responsibility of the Public Works Deputy
Director or a designee.
15
15-21
G-1
VIII. TREE TRIMMING STANDARDS
The City Council has adopted tree trimming cycles for trees of different ages
and species. Tree trimming cycles and trimming standards shall represent the
maximum feasible frequency given current fiscal conditions. Except as
provided in the Supplemental Trimming Section below, trimming shall be in
accordance with the standards of the International Society of Arboriculture
(ISA). In those communities with a home owners' association, periodic tree
trimming with an emphasis on crown reduction or vista trimming will be
considered by the City Arborist upon written request by the association.
IX. SUPPLEMENTAL TREETRIMMING
The City will consider requests to trim certain trees more frequently or to trim
trees consistent with practices applied prior to the adoption of ISA standards
(to enhance public and private views, preserve required sight/distance
standards, or other public purposes) which are submitted by affected private
property owners or the board of a home owners' association and the request
is accompanied by a completed "Supplemental Tree Trimming Form" and full
payment for the requested tree trimming. However, since these practices often
require 'topping' or possible disfiguring of a tree(s) and are often aesthetically
displeasing and injurious to a tree, reforestation shall be considered when
supplemental tree trimming is impractical or infeasible as determined by the
City Arborist.
The Landscape Manager shall establish procedures to implement the
supplemental trimming provisions of this Policy. In areas with an active
homeowners association, approval must be obtained from a legally
established association by the requestor of supplemental tree trimming if the
requested trimming is to be undertaken within the association boundaries.

PRESERVATION OF VIEWS
The purpose of this policy is to identify the importance of views lost to excessive plant
growth. The objectives of this policy are to:
A. Preserve and promote the aesthetic and environmental benefits provided by trees
and the preservation of views of the surrounding locale, recognizing views can be
enhanced and framed by properly maintained trees.
B. By example, City will endeavor to maintain all City -owned plants in a manner to
maximize public and private view planes. Exceptions can be trees that in
themselves enhance either the overall beauty of the area or are included in
Preservation of Special Trees list of Council Policy G-1 (Retention or Removal of
City Trees). Special requests for view trimming of City trees shall not be honored
to protect the tree trimming cycle/ schedule unless deemed necessary by the Public
Works Deputy Director or the resident complies with the provisions of the Tree
Trimming Standards/Supplemental Trimming section of Council Policy G-1.
C. Tree trimming shall be in accordance with the standards of the International
Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or with standards applied to a particular area prior
to the adoption of the ISA standards in the City. These standards may include
practices to enhance public views as necessary. However, since these practices
often require "topping" or possible disfiguring of a tree(s) and are often
aesthetically displeasing and injurious to a tree, reforestation shall be considered
when tree trimming is impractical or infeasible as determined by the City Arborist.
D. City trees are not affected by nor subject to the terms and conditions under a
Homeowners Association or a private neighborhood's CC&R's.
In an effort to preserve views in the 200 blocks of Carnation, Jasmine, Larkspur, Marigold,
and Orchid Avenues, the planting of parkway trees is prohibited.
Definitions to clarify this policy are:
A. Unreasonable Obstruction of View. A tree, shrub, hedge or other vegetation
should be maintained on public property in the City in such a mariner as to not
unreasonably obstruct the view from other property.
B. Views. "View" means a range of sight including pleasing vistas or prospects or
scenes. Views include, but are not limited to, the sight of geologic features, bays,
oceans, skylines, bridges and parks.

MAINTENANCE AND PLANTING OF PARKWAY TREES
The City Council is vitally interested in beautification of City parkways. Public
cooperation in helping to develop and maintain healthy and attractive parkway trees is
encouraged.
I. MAINTENANCE OF PARKWAY TREES
The Public Works Department will trim the parkway trees on a rotation schedule.
An effort will be made to trim the parkway trees on less than a three-year cycle.
More frequent trimming will be performed on approved trees and in approved
view areas. Public safety issues such as low branches and heavy foliage will be
given priority over view -type trimming. An effort will be made to trim parkway
trees located in heavy summer traffic areas during the fall and winter months.
Annual trimming of certain species of trees prone to wind damage will be done
prior to the winter season.
II. TREE DESIGNATION LISTS
The City Council has adopted an official street tree list, the Street Tree Designation
List (Exhibit A), which will be used by the Public Works Department, Municipal
Operations Division, to determine species for replacement of trees removed from
established parkways and for planning purposes in all new subdivisions and
commercial developments. A second list, the Parkway Tree Designation List
(Exhibit B), has been added as a species palette for residents to choose approved,
new and replacement, trees based on the size of parkway available for planting.
The Eastbluff Community Association has its own City approved street tree list
(Exhibit C).
The Public Works Deputy Director, or designee, will have the authority to add
species to the Street and Parkway Tree Designation Lists, which will be updated
on an as -needed basis by the Public Works Department staff and reviewed by the
Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission ("Commission") for approval before
adoption by the City Council.

ATTACHMENT B
RETENTION. REMOVAL. AND MAINTENANCE OF CITY TREES
Goal of Policy
To establish and maintain appropriate diversity in tree species and age classes to
provide a stable and sustainable urban forest with an inventory that the City can
reasonably maintain in a healthy and safe condition through the efficient use of
City resources. To require that in approving any tree removal or reforestation
request, the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission ("Commission ") shall
find that the tree removal request will not adversely impact the overall inventory,
diversity and age of the City's Urban Forest. To educate the public of the
protections of the City's Urban Forest and guide, in a user-friendly way, the
mechanisms in Dlace for tree replacements.
Purpose
The purpose of this policy is to establish definitive standards for the retention,
removal, maintenance, reforestation, tree trimming standards, and supplemental
trimming of City trees. City trees are an important part of the character and charm
of the entire City and provide environmental benefits as well. Regular care,
trimming, root pruning, maintenance, and programmed replacement are necessary
to preserve this charm while at the same time protecting public views consistent
with City Council Policy G-3, providing personal safety, and preventing public and
private property damage and providing a sustainable urban forest.
The City classifies public trees in one of three categories: Special City Trees,
Problem City Trees, and Standard City Trees.
I. SPECIAL CITY TREES
It is the City's policy to retain Special City Trees ("Special Trees")
categorized as Landmark, Dedicated, or Neighborhood trees, because they
have historical significance, and/ or contribute to, and give character to, a
location or to an entire neighborhood. Landmark, Dedicated, and
Neighborhood trees are identified by species in Attachment 1, and shall
hereinafter be collectively referred to as Special Trees. Trees within these
three categories shall be identified, mapped, recorded and administered by
staff for the Commission. When staff proposed modifications, the
Commission shall review the Special Tree list and forward
recommendations for additions or deletions to the City Council for
approval.
Landmark Trees are identified as those individual Special Trees that possess
15-61
historical significance by virtue of their size, age, location, or species.
Dedicated Trees are Special Trees donated in the memory of specific
individuals or organizations. Updates will be made annually to the City tree
inventory ystem that correspond to the amended B-17 Policy: Parks,
Facilities, and Recreation Program Donations. Attachment 1 of this Policy will
be updated annually to reflect updates.
Neighborhood Trees are Special Trees that by their unusual size, number,
species, or location lend a special character to a residential, commercial, or
business area.
All Special Trees shall be retained, unless there are overriding problems
which will require their removal such as death, disease, interference with
infrastructure, or the creation of a hazardous situation. Prior to considering
the removal of any Special Tree(s), the Public Works Deputy r
Bis Director, or designee, shall prepare a report identifying and
implementing specific mitigation measurest-Fim to retain the tree(s).
The report shall include a Tree Risk Assessment conducted by Staff and/or
the City's contracted consulting arborist. The Tree Risk Assessment may
include Level 3: Advanced Techniques if determined necessary by the City
Arborist and/or approved by Commission. If specific miti ag tion *rem
is unsuccessful or impractical in retaining a tree(s) then a full staff report
shall be made to the Commission before any further action considering
removal is taken. Prior to any removal of Special Tree(s), the City must
comply with the noticing provisions of the Removal of City Trees Section
set forth in Section W.A. of this Policy, unless a Special Tree is considered
so hazardous as to necessitate an emergency removal. In the case of
emergency removals, the Landscape Manager or the City Arborist shall
have the authority to direct the removal of a hazardous tree.
Long term, most trees reach maturity and decline, and will be replaced one-
for-one with the same species or the closest equivalent wherever possible.
An alternate species may be recommended by Staff if the same species is
unavailable and will be subject to approval by the Commission.sha44e
r-eeommended by Staff anWif appr-oN,ed by the Commission-.
During normal sidewalk, curb, and street repair activity requiring root
pruning, all steps shall be taken to retain Special Trees. If tree roots are to
be pruned in association with sidewalk, curb, and gutter improvements,
sufficient timing in advance must be planned to ensure that pruning will not
destabilize or kill the tree. If both sides of a Special Tree's roots are to be
pruned, one side should be pruned at minimum two six men4hs to years in
advance of the other side depending upon the species and other related
15-62
factors. If root pruning methods are not practical and/ or critical to the health
of the tree, then alternate or special hardscape improvements should be
considered by the City in order to retain the tree providing that these
measures are practical, costs are reasonable, and that they comply with
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. All proposed root
pruning or other tree treatment shall be evaluated and approved by the City
Arborist.
Special Trees may be considered for removal in conjunction with a City
Council -approved beautification project utilizing the Removal of City Trees
procedures as noted in Section IV.A. of this Policy.
II. PROBLEM CITY TREES
A Problem City Tree ("Problem Tree") is defined as a tree that by virtue of
its species isage known to cause eatises excessive hardscape or utility damage
due to its excessive root system. The following trees are defined as Problem
Trees:
• Ficus nitida (Indian Laurel Fig)
• Ficus rubiginosa (Rusty Leaf Fig)
Ficus benjamina (Weeping Fig)
Efythr-ina eaffia (Kaffir -boom Coral Tree)
• Fraxinus uhdei (Shamel Ash)
• Cupaniopsis anacardioides (Carrotwood)
• Liquidambar styraciflua (American Sweet Gum)
• Schinus terebinthifolius (Brazilian Pepper)
Problem Trees shall not be designated as City parkway trees on the Street
Designation Tree List of City Council Policy G-6, unless they are Special
Trees.
Problem Trees that are not designated Special Trees may be removed for
the following reasons:
A. The Problem Tree has had a repeated history of damaging public or
private sewers, water mains, roadways, sidewalks, curbs, walls,
fences, underground utilities, or foundations based on City records
or other competent and reliable authority. Water or sewer blockage
that results from tree roots and causes significant documented private
property damage (greater than $1 0-500.00) maysl be sufficient
criterion for tree removal; or
B. The Problem Tree has had a repeated history of significant
15-63
interference with street or sidewalk drainage, despite specific
treatment by the City to alleviate repeated damage; or
C. The Problem Tree has created, in the opinion of the City Arborist, a
view impediment that cannot be resolved by normal nor alternative
tree trimming procedures.
Problem Trees may be proposed for removal by either staff or private
property owners. The City Arborist Munieipal Operations Dir -e, to f has the
authority to remove Problem Trees. No more than 50 Problem Trees may
be removed per year by staff under the abovese criteria without special
approval of the Commission. Replacement trees of a minimum 36 -inch box
size shall be planted if funding, availability and growth space permits.
Staff is responsible for notifying the adjacent property owner, the legally
established homeowners association, if applicable, and the Councilperson
of the district where the removal is proposed, of the intent to remove a
Problem Tree. The decision by the City Arborist M,,. ieip„' Operations-.
Dir-eete
.-.erat:ons-
Dir-eete to remove a problem tree is final unless called up by at least one
Councilperson. The City Arborist shall report the removal of Problem Trees
under the above criteria on a monthly basis to the Commission. The cost to
remove and replace Problem Trees will be the sole responsibility of the City
based on funding, availability and growth space, except for Category C
(view).

III. STANDARD CITYTREES
A City tree which is located on City real property (parkways, parks, other
City -owned property) and not designated as a Special or Problem Tree is
designated as a Standard City Tree ("Standard Tree"). It is the City's policy
to retain Standard Trees unless removal is necessary for one of the
following reasons:
A. The City tree has had a repeated history of damaging public or
private sewers, water mains, roadways, sidewalks, curbs, walls,
fences, underground utilities, or foundations based on City records
or other competent and reliable authority. Water or sewer blockage
that results from City tree roots and causes significant public or
private property damage (greater than $1,000599.00) MayshaU be
sufficient criterion for tree removal; or
B. The City tree has had a repeated history of significant interference
with street or sidewalk drainage; or
C. The City tree is dead, diseased, dying, or hazardous, and presents a
15-64
liability to the City. A dead tree is one that has been assessed by the
City Arborist and found to have deceased. Diseased trees are defined
as those trees that cannot be cured by current arboricultural methods,
are in an advanced state of decline, and have no prospect of recovery.
Dying trees are those that have no prospect of recovery. Hazardous
trees are defined as those that are defective, have a potential to fail,
and would cause damage to persons and property upon failure. The
City Arborist will perform a Level 2: Basic, Tree Risk A-haizard
assessment whenever a tree is identified as hazardous. The
assessment will identify: structural defects of the tree, parts of the
tree most likely tofail, targets where imminent personal injury or property
damage may result with tree failure, and procedures or actions necessary
to mitigated the hazard. After assessment, the City Arborist will
expeditiously convey his written findings and recommendations to the
Landscape Manager Munieipal Operations Di -eete - for evaluation. If the
Landscape Manager r,r,,,..ieipa Open- tions D :eeto agrees with the City
Arborist findings to remove a tree, the hazardous tree will be removed
without further delay. In the case of imminent tree failure, the Landscape
Manager or the City Arborist shall have the authority to direct the
emergengy removal of a hazardous tree without further approvals; or
D. The tree(s) have been requested to be removed in conjunction with a
City Council -approved City, commercial, neighborhood, or home
owners' association beautification program; or
D -.E. The tree(s) have been reauested to be removed in coniunction with a
commercial or
residential project. Approval will only be granted if the Cites
unreasonably impedes the planned construction. In these cases, the
applicant will coordinate and assume all costs for the removal and
replacement. Replacements will be a minimum of 36 -inch box size,
but larger sizes may be required at the Landscape Manager's
discretion.
FJ. The City Manager, upon the advice of the Public Works
DeputyN4t ieip ' Operations Director, City Attorney, Risk Manager
or the Traffic Engineer, shall have the authority to remove individual
Problem or Standard Trees to resolve claims or safety issues.

V. REFORESTATION OF CITY TREES
A. Description of Reforestation
Reforestation is defined as the concept of systematically replacing
Problem or Standard Trees which are creating hardscape and/ or
view problems and cannot be properly trimmed, pruned or modified
to alleviate the problem(s) they create; or those which have reached
their full life and are declining in health; or are simply the wrong
species of trees for the planted location.
It is recognized and acknowledged that many City trees were planted
years ago and in some cases were planted with specific species that
when fully mature cause damage to curb, gutter, sidewalk or
15-71
underground utilities. Within the geographical boundaries of certain
view neighborhoods, City street trees may encroach into blue water
views from public and private property depending on the
length of time since the trees were last trimmed, or the age and height
of the trees. In other cases, the wrong species of tree was planted
originally and simply does not conform to the current treescape or
may represents a safety hazard. -The City Street Tree Designation List
and the City Parkway Tree Designation List attached to City Council
Policy G-6 reflect an effort by the City to designate appropriate tree
species that will not cause future problems.
The City understands the importance of trees and the beauty they
bring to a community, and desires to continually improve the urban
forest through reforestation. In areas where City trees have been
removed through City initiation, the City will endeavor to replace
the trees one for one with the appropriate designa4ed street tree.
B. Application for Reforestation
Individual private property owners, as well as home owners
associations, may apply for single or multiple tree reforestations in
their respective area by submitting a request to the Landscape
Manager 3,4-;6 -Pal Operations Di -eete for consideration by the
Commission that meets the following requirements:
• The proposed area must have clearly defined contiguous
geographical boundaries that include the tree(s) proposed for
removal and replacement, street address(es), block number(s),
or other geographical information. This Section applies to
individual and group requests.
• Residential communities, neighborhoods, or business
organizations who apply for reforestation must submit a
petition signed by a minimum of 60% of City of Newport
Beach fie—property owners within the area defined for
reforestation. The petition content must be approved and dated

owners' association area may submit individual requests for
reforestations. The applicant must submit a petition signedy a
minimum of 60% of all City of Newport Beach private property
owners within a radius of 500 feet in all directions from the
location of the proposed reforestation site. The petition content
must be approved and dated by staff prior to distribution. All

property owner status of the person(s) signing the petition.
• As an alternative to the above requirements, areas represented
by a home owners' association may submit a resolution of the
Board of Directors formally requesting a reforestation with a
statement that all members of the homeowners' association

notified and given an appropriate opportunity to respond before
the Board voted on the request. Individual private property
owners living within a home owners' association with
mandatory association membership must petition for
reforestation through their respective association.. must pefiti
for- reforestation
• A written agreement must be submitted to the Parks, Beaches
and Recreation Commission by the petitioning sponsor
(individual private property owner(s) or group) to pay 100% of
the costs of the removal and replacement of the public tree(s)
in advance of any removal activity. The actual removal and
replanting will be coordinated by the Public Works
Munieipal-
Oper-ations-Department, Municipal Operations Division. The
total costs shall include only the contractor's removal and
replacement costs and be paid in advance of any removal
actions.
• The replacement tree(s) for reforestation shall be an
appropriate tree that meets the criteria of the City's Street Tree
Designation List or the City Parkway Tree Designation List as
identified in City Council Policy G-6, or the applicant (person,
group, or organization) must request and obtain approval from
the Commission of the designation of a different tree species
15-73
prior to submitting any reforestation request for a tree species
other than the designated street tree, or an appropriate species
based on the City Tree Designation Lists. This Section applies
to individual or group requests.
• There shall be a minimum of a one for one replacement of all
trees removed in reforestation projects. Replacement trees
shall be a minimum size of 363-6-inchL' boxed trees, unless the
parkway space will not accommodate a 36-inch345L' boxed tree
or a tree cannot be planted due to planting restrictions
contained in City Council Policy G-6._ Per the Landscape
Manager's discretion, a larger sized box tree may be required
if it is replacing a tree of significant size or value in the Cites
inventory and ample planting space is available. If there is not
room for the replacement tree(s) at a specific site as designated
by City Council Policy G-6, then the replacement tree(s) shall
be planted in a public area in the same neighborhood at the
option of the petitioner. This Section applies to individual or
group requests.
• Reforestation requests must be completed and submitted in a
timely manner by the petitioner. Petitions that are dated more
than 90 days past the date stamped by staff before distribution
will not be forwarded to the Commission for consideration. The
Landscape Manager Munieipal OpeFationsz.ireeter may
extend this timeframe atm his or her discretion. The completed
reforestation application will go to the Commission to decide
whether to accept or deny the requested reforestation. The
decision of the Commission on reforestation requests will be
considered final unless called up by at least one
Councilmember or the City Manager.
• Trees being considered for Reforestation by the Commission shall be
posted with a minimum 8" x 5" placard at least 14 calendar days
prior to the scheduled meeting The placard shall also note a Staff
contact number and a date on which it was posted.
• The City shall require the proper care and watering of
replacement trees by the reforestation petitioner to ensure their
proper growth and development as outlined in City Council
Policy G-6. Section 13.090.030 of the Municipal Code outlines
what is expected of property owners in regards to proper care
of parkway trees adjacent to their property.
15-74
VI. TREE MAINTENANCE
The City will endeavor to fund the care of the Urban Forest to the highest
level possible through the efficient use of regular tree trimming, root
pruning, root barrier and pesticide programs in accordance with City
Council Policy G-6. Section 13.08.040 of the Municipal Code prohibits any
person from tampering with City trees.
VII. ENCROACHMENT AND DEMOLITION PERMITS
All encroachment permits (permits for private property development which
are proposed to install improvements inener-eaeh upon the City right of
way) or demolition permits that involve the removal or replacement of
City tree(s) must be specifically noticed by the property owner to City staff
prior to the building and/ or demolition permit process whenever possible.
The proposed construction plans must indicate preservation of existing City
trees wherever possible (except trees that are dead, dying, or in an advanced
state of decline). If the proposed development requires the removal of City
trees (that are not dead, dying or in decline), the property owner must
submit a tree removal form to the— Landscape ManagerMunieip-al
Operations Direeter, pay for all related tree removal and one -
for --one replacement costs, and meet all provisions of City Council Policies
L-2 and L-6 and City Municipal Code Sections 13.08 and 13.09, or any
successor policies or sections. Approval -or -disapproval -of -all--tree
removal/—replacement--requests associated with encroachment and
demolition permits will be the responsibility of the Public Works Deputy
Director or a designee.
VIII. TREE TRIMMING STANDARDS
The City Council has adopted tree trimming cycles for trees of different
ages and species. Tree trimming cycles and trimming standards shall
represent the maximum feasible frequency given current fiscal conditions.
Except as provided in the Supplemental Trimming Section below, trimming
shall be in accordance with the standards of the International Society of
Arboriculture (ISA). In those communities with a home owners'
association, periodic tree trimming with an emphasis on crown
reduction or vista trimming will be considered by the City Arborist upon
written request by the association.
IX. SUPPLEMENTAL TREE TRIMMING
The City will consider requests to trim certain trees more frequently or to
15-75
trim trees consistent with practices applied prior to the adoption of ISA
standards_—(to –enhance_–public –and --private views, preserve required--
sight/ -distance standards, or other public purposes) which are submitted by
affected private property owners or the board of a home owners' association
and the request is accompanied by a completed "Supplemental Tree
Trimming Form" and full payment for the requested tree trimming.
However, since these practices often require 'topping' or possible disfiguring
of a tree(s) and are often aesthetically displeasing and injurious to a tree,
reforestation shall be considered when supplemental tree trimming is
impractical or infeasible as determined by the City Arborist.
The LandscapeMana,er Nluniepp l-- .i eEter shall establish
procedures to implement the supplemental trimming provisions of this
Policy. In areas with an active homeowners association, approval must be
obtained from a legally established association by the requestor of
supplemental tree trimming if the requested trimming is to be undertaken
within the association boundaries.

PRESERVATION OF VIEWS
The purpose of this policy is to identify the importance of views lost to excessive plant
growth. The objectives of this policy are to:
A. Preserve and promote the aesthetic and environmental benefits provided by trees
and the preservation of views of the surrounding locale, recognizing views can be
enhanced and framed by properly maintained trees.
B. By example, City will endeavor to maintain all City -owned plants in a manner to
maximize public and private view planes. Exceptions can be trees that in
themselves enhance either the overall beauty of the area or are included in
Preservation of Special Trees list of Council Policy G-1 (Retention or Removal of
City Trees). Special requests for view trimming of City trees shall not be honored
to protect the tree trimming cycle/ schedule unless deemed necessary by the Public
Works Deputy Munidpal Operations Director or the resident complies with the
provisions of the Tree Trimming Standards/ Supplemental Trimming section of
Council -Policy G-1.
C. Tree trimming shall be in accordance with the standards of the International
Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or with standards applied to a particular area prior
to the adoption of the ISA standards in the City. These standards may include
practices to enhance public views as necessary. However, since these practices
often require "topping' or possible disfiguring of a tree(s) and are often
aesthetically displeasing and injurious to a tree, reforestation shall be considered
when tree trimming is impractical or infeasible as determined by the City Arborist.
D. City trees are not affected by nor subject to the terms and conditions under a
Homeowner's Association or a private neighborhood's CC&R's.
In an effort to preserve views in the 200 blocks of Carnation, Jasmine, Larkspur, Marigold,
and Orchid Avenues, the planting of parkway trees is prohibited.
Definitions to clarify this policy are:
A. Unreasonable Obstruction of View. A tree, shrub, hedge or other vegetation
should be maintained on public property in the City in such a manner as to not
unreasonably obstruct the view from other property.
15-84
B. Views. "View" means a range of sight including pleasing vistas or prospects or
scenes. Views include, but are not limited to, the sight of geologic features, bays,
oceans, skylines, bridges and parks.

and winter months. Annual trimming of certain species of trees prone to wind
damage will be done prior to the winter season.
