18.45.000 PURPOSES
This chapter provides regulations for the
clearing of and the protection and
preservation of trees and associated
significant vegetation for the following
purposes:

on undeveloped or partially developed
property;
B. To implement the policies of the State
Environmental Policy Act of 1971 as
revised in 1984;
C. To implement and further the goals and
policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan
in regard to the environment, open space,
wildlife habitat, vegetation, resources,

economics;
WSS52773O -1-
D. To ensure prompt development, restoration
and replanting, and effective erosion
control of property during and after land
clearing;
E. To promote land development practices
that result in a minimal adverse
disturbance to existing vegetation and
soils within the City;
F. To minimize surface water and groundwater
runoff and diversion;
G. To aid in the stabilization of soil, and
to minimize erosion and sedimentation;
H. To minimize the need for additional storm
drainage facilities caused by the

pure oxygen from carbon dioxide;
K. To preserve and enhance wildlife and
habitat including streams, riparian
corridors, wetlands and groves of trees;
L. To promote building and site planning
practices that are consistent with the
City's natural topographic and vegetation
features while recognizing that certain
factors such as condition (e.g. disease,
danger of falling, etc.), proximity to
existing and proposed structures and
improvements, interference with utility
services, and the realization of a
reasonable enjoyment of property may
require the removal of certain trees and
ground cover;

removed pursuant to a clearing permit
which has been approved by the City.
B. Trees shall be retained to the maximum
extent feasible.
1. Clearing should not occur outside of
the areas designated on the clearing
plan.
2. No tree(s) or ground cover shall be
removed from a Native Growth
Protection Easement or
environmentally sensitive site
unless that plot plan and other
submitted materials can demonstrate
that the removal will enhance the
easement area. An exception for the
installation of roads and utilities
may be approved if it can be
demonstrated that alternative access
is not practical or would be more
damaging and is developed pursuant
to an approved development plan.
Enhancement may include non -
mechanical removal of noxious or
intrusive species or dead or
diseased plants and replanting of
appropriate native species.
C. The City may restrict the timing of the
land clearing and tree cutting activities
to specific dates, times, and/or seasons
when such restrictions are necessary for
the public health, safety and welfare, or
for the protection of the environment
D. Native Growth Protection Easements may be
established through the subdivision
process in the following areas:
1. A 25 foot buffer area from the
annual high water mark of creeks,
streams, lakes and other shoreline
areas or from the top of the bank of
WSS52773O -10-
same, whichever provides good
resource protection.
2. Areas in which the average slope is
greater than 25 percent.
3. Wetlands.
4. Any other area which is determined
through the environmental review
process to include significant
vegetation, wildlife or other
similar resources which should be
protected.
E. No ground cover or trees which are within
25 feet of the annual high water mark of
creeks, streams, lakes, and other
shoreline areas or within 15 feet of the
top of the bank of same should be
removed, nor should any mechanical
equipment operate in such areas except
for the development of public parks and
trail systems, PROVIDED that conditions
deemed by the City to constitute a public
nuisance shall be removed, and provided
that a property owner shall not be
prohibited from making landscaping
improvements where such improvements are
consistent with the aims of this chapter.

applicant to relocate or replace trees,
provide interim erosion control,
hydroseed exposed slopes, or use other
similar methods which would comply with
the intent of the chapter.
G. No land clearing and tree cutting shall
be conducted in a wetland, except for the
installation of roads and utilities where
no feasible alternative exists and the
work is done pursuant to an approved
development plan.
H. When tree cutting or land clearing will
occur pursuant to a building permit,
protection measures should apply for all
trees which are to be retained in areas
immediately subject to construction. The
requirements listed may be modified
individually or severally by the City if
WSS527730 -11-
the developer demonstrates them to be
inapplicable to the specific on -site
conditions or if the intent of the
regulations will be implemented by
another means with the same result.

retained.
2. The applicant shall erect and
maintain rope barriers on the
dripline or place bales of hay to
protect roots. In addition, the
applicant shall provide supervision
whenever equipment or trucks are
moving near trees.
3. If the grade level adjoining a
retaining tree is to be raised or
lowered, the applicant shall
construct a dry rock wall or rock
well around the tree. The diameter
of this wall or well must be equal
to the tree's drip line.
4. The applicant may not install ground
level impervious surface material
within the area defined by the
dripline of any tree to be retained.
5. The grade level around any tree to
be retained may not be lowered
within the greater of the following
areas: (1) the area defined by the
dripline of the tree, or (2) an area
around the tree equal to one foot in
diameter for each one -inch of tree
caliper.
6. The applicant may prune branches and
roots, fertilize, and water as
horticulturally appropriate for any
WSS527730 -12-
trees and ground cover which are to

$500.00 per tree to a maximum of
$10,000.00. Any fine imposed by the
Planning Division Manager is appealable
WSS527730 -13-
to the Hearing Examiner. This civil fine
shall be in addition to any criminal,
civil or injunctive remedy available to
the City.
18.45.075 PUBLIC AN❑ PRIVATE REDRESS
A. Any person who violates any provision of
this chapter or of a permit issued
pursuant hereto shall be liable for all
damages t❑ public or private property
arising from such violation, including
the cost of restoring the affected area
to its original condition prior to such
violation and the payment ❑f any levied
fine.
1. Restoration shall include the
replacement of all ground cover with
a species similar to those which
were removed or other approved
species such that the biological and
habitat values will be substantially
replaced; and
2. For each tree removed, replacement
planting of up to three (3) trees of
the same species in the immediate
vicinity of the tree(s) which was
removed so long as adequate growing
space is provided for such
species. The replacement trees
shall be of sufficient caliper to
adequately replace the lost
tree(s). Replacement trees shall be
a minimum of three (3) inches in
caliper and shall be replaced at the
direction of the Planning Division
Manager.
B. In order that replanted species shall
have an opportunity to adequately root
and establish themselves prior to
disturbance by any future development, no
permit shall be issued nor final approval
given to any project until such time as
all planting required to mitigate illegal
activity has been fully implemented in
accordance with an approved landscaping
plan, and an adequate rooting period has
expired. The plan shall meet the
performance standards established in
WSS52773O -14-
§18.45.050. The phrase "adequate rooting
period" is defined for the purposes of
this section as a period of one (1)
calendar year from the date of planting,
provided, however, that a developer or
other impacted party may apply to the
Architectural Design Board for the
establishment of a different rooting
period. The Architectural Design Board
shall establish such period which may be
longer or shorter than one (1) calendar
year based upon the species of the plants
involved, the particular point in the
growing cycle at which the application is
reviewed, and the planting schedule. The
Architectural Design Board shall
establish a rooting period based upon the
best scientific and biological evidence
available as necessary to reasonably
insure the establishment of the
plantings. In no event shall a rooting
period be established as a penalty.
C. Restoration shall also include
installation and maintenance of interim
and emergency erosion control measures
until such time as the restored ground
cover and trees reach sufficient
maturation to function in compliance with
the performance standards identified in
section 18.45.050.
Section 2. This ordinance, being an exercise of a
power specifically delegated to the City legislative body, is not
subject to referendum, and shall take effect five (5) days after
passage and publication of the ordinance or a summary thereof
consisting of the title.
