Tree Report, Peet's Coffee <br />Peter G. Shutts <br />HortScience, Inc. <br />Page 6 <br />The value of landscape trees is based upon four factors: size, species, condition and <br />location. Size is measured as trunk diameter, normally 54" above grade. The species <br />factor considers the adaptability and appropriateness of the plant in the East Bay. The <br />Species Classification and Group Assignment lists recommended species ratings and <br />evaluations. Condition reflects the health and structural integrity of the trees prior to <br />removal. The location factor considers the site, placement and contribution of the tree in <br />its surrounding landscape. <br />Considering the four factors noted above, I established the value of the 14 trees as <br />$19,850 (Table 3). <br />Table 3.
