Staff has made the finding that the protected trees are irreversibly diseased, are in danger of falling, and cannot be controlled or remedied through reasonable relocation or modification. The proposed replacement plan is consistent with the Protected Tree Ordinance since the applicant is replacing the trees on site, and the number of tree replacements is consistent with the ordinance. The finding is necessary to grant the tree removal permit in accordance with section 14.18.180 (t�) (1). The application is approved with the following conditions: 1. APPROVED PRO.TECT The approval is based on the arborist report prepared by Samuel Oakley (#WE-9474A), dated August 19, 2015, consisting of six pages uzcluding a tree removal and replacement site plan, except as may be amended by conditions in this resolution. 2. TREE REPLACEMENT The required replacement trees are three (3) 36-inch box Acer buel�ger�ianum (Trident Maple), as per the replacement plan. The applicant shall provide the Department of Community Development adequate documentation, including but not limited to photographs, receipts, or invoices to verify that the replacement tree have been planted within 30 days of replanting/removal. 3. PROTECTED TREES The applicant understands that replacement trees are protected trees and inay not be removed without a Tree Removal Permit and that they shall be responsible for ensuring the proper maintenance and care of the trees. The applicant shall also disclose the location and species of all replacements trees on site upon sale of the property. 4. NOTICE OF FEES, DEDICATIONS, RESERVATIONS OR OTHER EXACTIONS The conditions of Project Approval set forth herein may include certain fees, dedication requirements, reservation requirements, and other exactions. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66020(d) (1), these Conditions constitute written notice of a statement of the amount of such fees, and a description of the dedications, reservations, and other exactions.

Please see Exhibit 1.1 for the relative location of the subject trees indicated with red dots, and for the location of the replacement trees. The trees were inspected on August 18, 2015. Metrics for the proposed tree removals are found in the following table: � � • �- � - � � .� 1 Callery Pear Pyrus calleryana 18" 57" 35 20 2 Callery Pear Pyrus calleryana 16" _ 50" 30 15 3 Callery Pear Pyrus calleryana NA NA NA NA Tree 1 had a large scaffold liinb fail at the branch union of the codominant tree. The failure has compromised the structural integrity of the tree, causing the canopy to be unbalanced towards the roadway. Roots opposite of the lean were cut prior to the liinb failure during the installation of a utility pad, further predisposing the subject tree to ground-level catastrophic failure. Tree 2 is in the same landscape area and exhibits a severe lean. The trunk has flattened on the lean-side of the trunk, indicating girdling roots below natural grade. There is root mounding on the opposite-side of the lean, an indication that the root ball shifted/failed in the past. As the tree grows and becomes larger, it will put on weight exponentially. The girdling roots will eventually cut through the root crown on the lean-side of the trunk, resulting in ground-level catastrophic failure. Similar tree failures have occurred in the same landscape. Tree 3 is in the sarne landscape area and failed recently in 2015. We understand the trees listed above are considered protected trees pursuant to Section 14.18.035 of the City of Cupertino's Municipal Code and require a permit from the City's 2�37 AMERICAN AVE, NAYWARD,CA 94545 OFFicE: (888)969-8733 1993 EAST BAYSHORE ROAD, REDWOOD CITY,CA 94063 MAIN FAX: (510)881-5208 HR FAx(510)670-0275 WWW.ARBORWELL.COM �, 1 �.

The trees will require replacement,selected by the Apple arborist to ensure optimal structure, health, and no girdling roots. The selected trees will then be trained from an early age as needed to optimize branching structure, extending the aesthetically and structurally-sound lifespan of the trees. The proposed replacements are three (3) 36-inch box Acer buergeYianum (trident maple) in the same growing space as the removals.
