shown on the vegetation inventory for which a tree removal permit has not been obtained is to be protected. The property
owner shall guarantee survival of retained trees and replacement trees for three (3) years from the date the city accepts
the trees and landscaping as complete, unless a greater time period is required by a development order. If a retained or
replacement tree dies during that time period, the property owner shall replace the tree in accordance with a remedial
action as required by this chapter.
(c) Protective barriers and signage required. Protective barriers and signage shall be installed around every tree or
group of trees to be preserved prior to commencement of construction, in compliance with the guidelines in the Tree

(1) Temporary protective barriers shall be placed at least six (6) feet from the base of any tree, and shall encompass
at least fifty (50) percent of the area under the dripline of any tree or trees to be preserved or retained for

Re: Arborist letter
To Whom it May Concern:
Upon inspection of the property, I found a Water oak tree that is suffering from root rot
and it is starting to spread into the trunk of the tree. The tree grows on a slope in the yard, and it is
leaning towards the new house being built on the property. The tree is a hazard and should be
removed. In addition, there is a Palm tree located on the property that has holes throughout the
trunk and visible rot can be seen. The tree is also growing on a slope in the yard and is leaning
towards the new house. It is a hazard to the property and should be removed.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
Best regards,
/s/ Joe Musgrove
