HistoricalAdvisoryBoard | 2005-09-01 | 4 | Board Member Lynch feels that tree is in poor health and should be removed. M/S (Lynch, Tilos) to approve the Certificate of Approval CA05-0018, for the removal of one Coast Live Oak tree at 812 Paru Street with conditions stated in draft Resolution. 3-0-1. Ayes: 3; Noes: 0; Absent: 1; Motion carries. 4. CA05-0020, 1415 Union Street, Applicant: Julie Cowell (EP). The applicant requests a Certificate of Approval for the removal of a Coast Live Oak tree (Quercus Agrifolia) that was located along the left side of the driveway. The tree was promoting hazardous conditions due to its proximity to the leaves of the building. The site is located at 1415 Union Street, within an R-5, General Residential Zoning District. Ms. Pudell presented staff report. The tree was removed in July 2005 because it posed a health and safety hazard to the apartment building located on the property. A six foot tall portion of the stump still remains. Typically staff would require two replacement trees be planted, but a landscape plan was submitted by the applicant indicating that there does not appear to be a suitable location for the replacement trees. Staff is requesting that the applicant pay fees equal to the cost of the two replacement trees to be collected by the Recreation and Parks Department. There were no speaker slips submitted for this item. Vice-Chair Miller opened the floor to Board discussion. Vice-Chair Miller is in favor of approval, but would like staff to notify the Board when the fees are collected. Board Member Tilos feels there should be a penalty for removing an oak tree without proper approval. Ms. Eliason informed the Board that Staff is currently working on revisions to the Historical Preservation Ordinance and can include a section on penalties for removing Oak trees without a permit. As it is now, the only way to impose penalties would be if the application came in as a code enforcement complaint, then investigative fees would apply.
