Edmonds, WA 98026 Subject: Hazard Tree Removal (CRA2021-0193) Dear Lisa, Thank you for reaching out regarding the cedar tree in your side yard at 8311 Talbot Road. The area where the tree is located is near the outfall of Perrinville Creek, a known anadromous fishbearing stream in Edmonds and an environmentally critical area. Generally, the removal of trees or vegetation within a critical area or critical area buffer is not an allowed activity unless it involves the removal of invasive species or hazard trees pursuant to ECDC 23.40.220.C.8. Where pruning or crown thinning is not sufficient to address the hazard, trees may be removed or converted to a wildlife snag. According to the photos and report provided, the cedar is about 48" DSH, in poor health, and therefore a candidate for removal. A hazard tree cutting exemption is granted per ECDC 23.40.220.C.8.b with the following conditions: 1. This review only applies to the cedar tree identified in the photos and report. 2. The tree can be removed to the ground and stump ground out. The downed wood and cuttings may be removed from the site. 3. A minimum of two replacement trees must be planted in the general vicinity of the cedar. Two Excelsa cedars are shown as replacements in the arborist report. Evergreen replacement trees must be at least six feet in height as measured from the top of the root ball. 4. The replacement trees must be installed within one year of the removal of the cedar. Please provide photos of each of the planted replacement trees to verify installation. If you have any questions, please let me know at either michael.clugston@edmondswa.gov or 425-771-0220. Sincerely, c % Mike Clugston, AICP Senior Planner Enclosures Earth First Landscaping Inc. 10-6-21 Donna Young President ISA Certified Arborist PN-7581A 7010 85' Ave SE Snohomish WA 98290 Lisa Siville 8311 Talbot Rd Edmonds WA 98020 Lisa, I've attached photos, the TRAQ form, site map showing existing (hazard) cedar tree and replacement trees if you decide to remove the cedar tree in question. You'll need to replant within one year of removal. I have chosen Excelsa Cedars as replacements. They will need to be at least 6' in height once planted. Please refer to the applicable code EDC 23.40.220.C.8.b. i-vi you received from Mike Clugston, city of Edmonds.
