The City's form application for appeal is attached together with our check in <br />the amount of $6.25. <br />At the Planning Commission meeting of July 27,2005, the Planning Commission <br />upheld your recommendation as Zoning Administrator for approval of our project but <br />added three additional conditions of approval to our proposed addition. We are <br />appealing two of these three additional conditions. <br />1) We object to the imposition of the replacement of the three trees to be <br /> removed in connection with our proposed addition. <br /> Mike Fulford, the City's Landscape Architect to whom you referred us as part <br /> of the application process, reported in his memorandum to you on June 27, <br /> 2005, that "The Diaz residence possesses a LOT of trees" . . . "I would not <br /> hesitate to grant Mr. And Mrs. Diaz permission to remove the subject trees in <br /> order to proceed with their addition, and furthermore, considering the already <br /> abundant number of large healthy trees on the property, I do not believe it <br /> should be necessary to require them to plant additional trees . . ." Regrettably, <br /> Mr. Fulford's report apparently was not available to the Planning Commission <br /> at the time of their consideration of our addition. <br />
