Subject: Beautification Commission Ideas
Hi Karlene
The Beautification Comm. could offer to take over the Adopt -a -Planter Program for DBBA,
raising money for more plants for the Burlingame Avenue planters and to pay for watering
twice a week early in the morning. Kevin Osborne is giving it his all, trying to get
people to renew their adoptions and trying to find someone with a truck to water.
This program was first started by CBB, having been given approval by the Beaut. Comm. over
5 years ago. It costs $500 for the first year and $400 for subsequent years, and a plaque
is placed on the adopted planter.
Some planters are difficult to plant, some are easy; some are in full shade, others in
full sun; most have mature trees in their 4' x 7'
spaces, some of which sucker aggressively and need monthly trimming.
Or we could always go out on Burlingame Avenue and physically plant
few times during the growing season. It's easy, and we could put on
invite others to join us.

STAFF REPORT
To: Burlingame Beautification Commission
DATE: May 27, 2009
FROM: Bob Disco, Park Supervisor
SUBJECT: 1812 Easton Dr. Cypress Removal
BACKGROUND:
Ms Schneider originally requested remove of this cypress in front of her home at 1812
Easton Dr in December of 2005 due to the damage and financial burden the roots are
causing to the driveway, fence and sidewalk. After evaluations by Staff and Independent
Arborist, the tree was determined to be healthy and not in danger of falling.
Ms Schneider appealed this to the Beautification Commission in July 2006 where it was
denied (6-0-1) based on "health". This decision was brought forward to the City Council
where they determined at the September 2006 Council meeting " that the appeal was held
over until a recommendation comes from the BBC on the Easton Drive Long Range
Reforestation Plan".
Ms Schneider has asked for removal again as stated in the attached letter dated April
2009 and the following documentation. The request is being forwarded to the BBC for
consideration as determined by the City Council. (See Attachment)
Considerations for the Beautification Commission:
1. The health of the tree is relatively the same as indicated by the evaluation in
2006. (Eval. Attached)
2. The driveway and sidewalk damage has slightly increased due to the growth
of the roots and root flare. (Pictures Attached)
3. Is this particular situation unique to any other situation on Easton or in the
area as not to set a precedent?
4. Typically, Cypress trees have little or no regenerating growth once pruning
has occurred, specifically roots will not generate new growth when cut.
5. Does the financial burden to the homeowner outweigh the justification for
keeping a tree that has been determined to be in 65% condition?

Re: 1812 Easton Avenue
Dear Mr. Disko:
At your request, on Friday, April 7 and again on Tuesday, April 18, 2006, I visited the
above site. The purpose of my visits was to inspect and comment on the large cypress
tree in front on the City planting strip.
Observations:
The Monterey cypress, Cupressus macrocarpa, has a diameter at breast height of 49.8
inches. The tree is approximately 45 feet tall, with a spread of 50 feet and is 6 inches
from the driveway. The foiiar color is good but the shoot growth is below normal.
Several scars on the trunk exhibit exposed xylem (sapwood).
Pruning History:
The cypress has been well maintained in the past and is well balanced. The tree was
topped in the past; this may have been done to remove a dead top. In addition, the
limbs were shortened to reduce the chance of limb drop.
Damages Caused By This Tree:
The sidewalk was repaved in 1992 and has since been lifted by the tree. Asphalt has
been placed in areas to relieve the trip -hazard. The driveway has had a 3 foot section
removed and replaced with pea gravel to help reduce root damage. Brick pillars which
hold the gates have been lifted and are no longer plumb. The remainder of the drive-
way has been lifted.
e)
Burlingame Parks & Rec. Dept/Disko 4-25-06, Pg. 2
Tests:
A mallet test was performed to hear any hollow spaces in this tree. This is a test which
helps identify cavities in a tree and, in this case, no cavities were detected. A drill test
was performed in the area approximately 4 feet above ground where xylem has been
exposed due to cankers or injury by equipment. The test results were that a solid, dead
core was found approximately 6 inches below the live bark edge. This is the location of
the exposed xylem and the wood at that point is solid, but dry (common with this
species). Root crowns were inspected by cutting into the bark with a chisel and
inspecting the tissue beneath. Some decay was noted, but most tissue was alive and
solid.
Summary:
This large Monterey cypress is an over -mature tree. This tree will continue to decline
and is a good candidate for replacement as a reforestation project. This cypress has
caused property damage for years on this site. However, it is a part of the tree -lined
street which gives Easton Drive its distinction. The tree does not appear to be an
immediate hazard as it is large -bottomed and has a fairly small foliar canopy. Surface
roots do have decay; however, I believe this is an equipment injury and not a disease -
caused problem. Location of the tree is also problematical. Removal is not an
immediate need, but this should be one of the first trees removed.
I believe this report is accurate and based on sound arboricultural principles and
practices. Please call if you have any questions.
Sincerely,

TREE EVALUATION
Person Reporting: Bob Disco
Details of Tree:
Genus: Cupressus
Species: macrocarpa
Common Name: Monterey Cypress
Approx. Age: 100+ , Height: 50 DBH: 52"
Tree Location: 1812 Easton Dr.
Date : Feb. 1. 2008
, Cir: ',Crown: 70'
Title: Park Supervisor
1. Assignment: Issue a report on the health, structure and history of the Monterey Cypress at 1812
Easton. Homeowner would like it removed because it is damaging surrounding hardscape.
2. Observations:
Structural Defects: Heavy lateral limbs. Heading cuts. Topped in past.
Soil/Root Condition: Growing in a large planting strip surrounded by concrete sidewalk and
drive and asphalt street. Roots are lifting sidewalk and damaging brick fence. Section of
driveway is had to be removed to allow vehicles to enter without scraping bottom of car.
Driveway was replaced with gravel to allow for growth of root. Root is now being driven on
daily.
Injuries: 2 scars on trunk. Topped at one time.
History of tree/site: See attached. Evaluation also done in Feb. 2006. Criteria for tree
removal done in Dec. 2007. Independent arborist report done in Oct. 2007
3. Analysis / Testing: All analysis and testing were done visually without any injury to tree.
3. Conclusions and Discussion: This tree was rated "fair" (65%) by an independent arborist in 2007.
It has a hazard rating of 7 out of a possible 12, mostly because of the large lateral limbs that
could fail. This tree is nicely tapered and a low probability for whole tree failure. Greater
probability for lateral limb failure.
Sidewalk is lifted in 2 areas and is patched with asphalt. Permanent solution would be to root
prune and or ramp. There was no noticeable change in S/W damage from March 2006 to Feb.
2008
Driveway is cut away and filled with base rock to allow grown of root. Root cannot be cut
because it is too close to root flair. Ramping, pavers, or asphalt are all options.
Brick fence is leaning because of growing roots. Fence can be rebuilt, and roots may be
pruned if a qualified arborist inspects roots once they are exposed.
Similar situations occur at other locations on Easton Dr. (1715 Easton).
My recommendation is to deny removal. Consideration must be given to other homeowners on
Easton with similar situations. Homeowner may appeal this decision to the Beautification
Commission
Every effort should be taken to repair hardscape in a way that would cause the least damage
to tree roots.
Since this tree was rated "fair", staff should continue to evaluate this tree every 2 years and if a
noticeable decline in health is apparent then the tree should be removed.
Homeowner is encouraged to obtain their own Arborist report to support their need for
removal.

Dear Carlene,
Per our previous conversation, I am submitting yet another request for permission to have
the City of Burlingame parks commission consider the removal of the Cupressus
Macrocarpa (Monterey Cypress) situated in my driveway at the address above. After my
second request was denied, Randy Schwartz assured me that after "Tom" was taken down,
mine would become the next priority for the City of Burlingame to remove. Since that time,
more damage has affected my home and car. The decreased value of my home is a direct
result of the invasive roots and width of the tree. Property taxes on this home will fall
dramatically.
I have included the following documentation with this letter:
1. Report from McCarthy Tree Specialties, Inc. dated June 9, 2008
2. A letter from a Bobbi Maniscalco, Broker Associate of Coldwell Banker.
3. A Bid from Aguilar & Sons to repair the concrete damaged by the tree roots.
4. A bid from Gomez Iron Works to replace the fence and gates damaged by the tree
roots.
5. Invoices paid by me for paint repair on my car caused by scraping during entrance and
exit from my driveway. New damage has occurred, those estimates to follow.
Tha ou for your earliest consideration for removal of this tree.

In reply to our conversation, if you were going to sell your home at 1812 Easton Drive,
Burlingame, you would have to disclose the fact that the tree in front of your home has
damaged your driveway, the sidewalk, the gate, the fence and could possibly cause future
damage the foundation if not removed. Your efforts in trying to resolve this problem
with no results would also have to be disclosed. When I drove by the home, I observed
the drive -up appeal has been compromised by this tree. It appears to be located in a place
that it would very difficult place to either drive or park a car in the driveway.
All of these issues would greatly affect the value of your home and most buyers would
not want to purchase the home with these problems. I hope this problem gets resolved
for you so you won't have any more future damage.

RE: APPEAL OF THE DENIAL FOR THE REMOVAL OF THE CITY OWNED CYPRESS TREE
@ 1812 EASTON DRIVE - BURLINGAME
At its regular meeting of June 4, 2009, the Beautification Commission voted, 3 (approved),l
(opposed/McQuaide), I (recused/Lahey), and 2 (absent/Carney and Hunt) to uphold the appeal of the denial
to remove the City owned Cypress tree at the above address. The decision was based on the findings that
the tree is in decline, and a unique situation in that root pruning is not an option because Cypress tree roots
will not generate new growth once cut. However, as part of the motion, the Commission required that the
homeowner be responsible for the cost of the stump removal as well as the cost of a 24" box size Eucalyptus
citriodora replacement tree (in keeping with the reforestation plan on Easton Drive).
Anyone may appeal the Commission's decision to the City Council in writing by June 22°d . Such letters of
appeal must be accompanied with a $255 fee (made payable to the City of Burlingame) and delivered to the
Parks & Recreation Department, 850 Burlingame Avenue, Burlingame, CA, 94010. If no appeal has been
received by that date, the tree will then be scheduled for removal.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, you may call the Parks Division at (650) 558-7330.

RE: REMOVAL OF CITY OWNED CYPRESS TREE @ 1812 EASTON DRIVE -
BURLINGAME
Attached is a copy of the June 4, 2009, Beautification Commission minutes as well as a copy of
the letter sent to you and adjacent property owners regarding removal of the city -owned tree.
There were no appeals received in this office by June 22°d therefore the process to remove the
Cypress tree can now begin.
To clarify, the Commission's decision to approve the removal of the city -owned Cypress tree was
based on the condition that the property owner would contract and be responsible for all costs
related to the stump removal, as well as covering the cost for the City crew to plant a 24" box size
Eucalyptus citriodora tree.
• Our department will issue you a "no fee" permit for you to contract with a stump removal
company of your choosing to remove the stump once our crews have removed the tree.
• The permit will be effective through September 30, 2009.
• In October, a 24" box size Eucalyptus citriodora tree will be planted by City crews.
• You will be billed $200 after the tree has been planted.
Please make arrangements at your earliest convenience to secure the permit by calling the Parks
office at (650) 558-7330. The removal of the tree will be scheduled once the permit has been
signed and executed.
