IRUNGAME ni1A- lii A3urlinpmr SAN MATEO COUNTY CITY HALL-501 PRIMROSE ROAD BURLINGAME, CALIFORNIA 94010 October 26, 1983 Rev. Samuel Battles Trinity Lutheran Church LC -MS 1245 El Camino Real Burlingame, CA 94010 Dear Rev. Battles: TEL:(415) 342-5931 At its meeting of August 4, 1983, the Burlingame Beautification Commission granted a permit to remove 4 Sycamore trees in the public right of way at 1245 El Camino Real. This permit was con- tingent on CalTrans approval, which was subsequently received. The Commission was very clear that in granting the permit, they were dealing only with the 4 trees to be removed. They stressed to your representative, Mr. Carl Roepke, that absolutely no work was to be done on the remaining trees. He assured the Commission that this was to be the case. Since that time the 4 trees have been removed, and the remaining trees have been severely cut back in violation of city ordinance 11.06.060, which requires a permit for any work significantly af- fecting a heritage tree. The Commission discussed this matter at length at its October 6, 1983 meeting, and directed me to write a letter requesting that you send a representative to the November 3, 1983 meeting to explain why the conditions of the per- mit were not adhered to, and how you propose to remedy this situ- ation. The November 3 meeting will be held in the Park Department office at 7:30 p.m. Should you have any further questions, please call this office at 342-8931 ext. 20. S" ely, Richard Director RPQ/kh P.
