May 4.2017 (� <br /> Torrey Young,Dryad.LLC <br /> 17022-20093 H.I.P.Renovations-Home Improvement Pros <br /> Site:3552 Yellowstone C1.Pleasanton.CA <br /> Tree no.2,glossy privet(Lfgusfrum Japonica): This tree does not qualify as a Heritage Tree either by <br /> size or species. While it has structural weaknesses, it is of small stature,good vigor and free of significant <br /> insects or disease. If removal is preferred, no permit is required. <br /> Recommendations: <br /> • Install protective fencing on as large a perimeter as possible to protect the driptine area of the tree. <br /> • Install a layer of organic mulch to a settled depth of 3-4 inches,throughout the tree's dripline, <br /> including beyond any protective fencing. <br /> • Perform only the minimum of pruning required for clearance, by removing as little foliage as possible. <br /> Tree no.3,sweetgum(Ligruidantbar styracimua): While this tree is not in direct conflict with construction, it <br /> exhibits several issues that render it a poor candidate for long-term preservation in this location. The species <br /> can achieve very large size which is inappropriate in this restricted growing space adjacent to the home, <br /> driveway and sidewalk_ The species is known for a vigorous,surface rooting character that often contributes <br /> to hardscape damage. Signs of a bacterial infection(exuding lower trunk)can also be a sign of decay and/or <br /> root disease. The weakly attached codominant trunks are susceptible to failure. Cabling and bracing can <br /> reduce but eliminate this risk. Preserving will necessitate minor pruning for clearance purposes. <br /> Recommendations: Remove. If removal is unacceptable, protect during construction as follows. <br /> • Install protective fencing on as large a perimeter as possible to protect the dripline area of the tree. <br /> • Install a layer of organic mulch to a settled depth of 3-4 inches, throughout the tree's dripline, <br /> including beyond any protective fencing. <br /> • Perform only the minimum of pruning required for clearance,by removing as little foliage as possible. <br /> • Consider Installing a cable between the two codominant stems and a bolt at the attachment in (not <br /> related to construction). <br /> TREE PRESERVATION RECOMMENDATIONS: For any trees to be retained, 1 recommend following the <br /> General Construction Site Tree Preservation Guidelines on page 10 of this report. I also recommend that the <br /> guidelines in the following publications(or their latest revisions) be followed as closely as possible,within <br /> the limitations of the requirements of the City of Pleasanton: <br /> • American National Standards Institute, 2012.
