Subject: Tree replacement permit for Rosewood Court PLN20090050
Dear Mr. Govaert,
I have reviewed the resubmittal for the proposed tree cutting and replacement for Rosewood
Court and have found the following information, corrections, or clarifications still need to be
addressed so I can complete my review.
1.Replacement Trees: The resubmittal for the proposed tree cutting indicates 18 western red
cedars will be replanted, while the letter prepared by Jay Maize of Davey Tree & Lawn
indicated 21 trees will be replanted to replace the nine trees proposed for removal. The
resubmittal also does indicate the size of the trees to be replanted. Pursuant to Edmonds
Community Development Code (ECDC) 23.40.220.C.7.iv, the replacement trees must be a
minimum of six feet in height for evergreen trees as measured from the top of the root ball.
Please verify the number of replacement trees, and indicate the size of the replacement trees
that will be replanted.
2.Site Plan: The site plan only indicates four general planting areas for the replacement trees.
It is still unclear where the replacement trees will be planted. Please indicate on the site plan
where each individual replacement tree will be planted. Also, the number and general
location of replacement trees indicated in the letter by Jay Maize, did not match the number
and general location indicated in the resubmittal.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions, 425-771-0220, lien@ci.edmonds.wa.us.
Sincerely,
Kernen Lien
