Hi Julie and Charles,
Thank you for your patience — I'm finally catching up to my overdue permit reviews.
Thank you for submitting the arborist report with appraised values for the fir and cedar, a replanting
plan, and the reasons for tree removal on a subdividable lot without a permit. The payment of the
appraised value of the 2 trees will be waived. You will have one year to plant your replacement
trees, which must be a minimum size of 1.5 inches caliper for deciduous trees and 6' in height for
evergreen trees. Please notify me when you have planted the required replacement trees so I can
schedule an inspection.
I noticed that at intake, the permit tech did not assess the Type 1 permit fee, likely because it was
unclear whether this would become a code enforcement case. So now that the review is complete
(essentially your permit has been approved) you will be invoiced for Type 1 permit processing. I think
it's $275 and possibly a $30 technical fee if it goes through mbp.com.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Take care and have a great weekend!
Best,
Deb Powers I Urban Forest Planner
