Certified Arborist #654 i SARATOGA TREE SERVICE 20380 Town Center Lane, Snite 230 Cupertino, CA 95014-3212 (408) 255-1528 — (408) 255-2421 FAX 9-17-1999 South Bay Development 511 Division Street Campbell, Ca 95008 Attention: Maureen Bowers Re: 2155 S. Bascom --Tree Consultation An inspection was performed to determine the potential for future problems as well as current problems with some of the trees at the 2155 S.Bascom location. Glenn, from Sugamra, showed me the trees in question. Tt.:re is a row of Liquidambar styraciFlua trees that are in front of the building and continue along the entrance driveway. There are also two Pyrus calleryana, (Aristocrat Pears) in this same row. All of these driveway trees are of a size where additional growth will continue to hit vehicles as they drive by. One of the Pears was recently hit by a truck and lost two limbs. (see photo 1) This photo also shows the close locations of the trees to the road as well as the building. Photo 2 also shows the close location of these trees to both the road. curb and structure. The Liquidambar trees are a variety that wid get far too large for this location. They are young trees averaging trunk diameters of around 10 to 12 inches. In just a few short years these trees will become much larger and the root systems will cause great damage to the cement and pavement. (see photos 3, 4, and 5) Recommend removal of all these tries due to wrong varieties for these locations and proximity to drive. (Eight Liquidam: ers and two A. Pears ) In the front of the complex, there is a large leaning Monterey Pine. This tree is growing over the road and a large utility box. If the tree were to fall due to the lean and excessive weight on one side, it would fall on the busy road and sidewalk. Recommend removal due to hazard. Also, on the left side of the driveway, parking area, there is one 'eaning Geijera that should also he removed due to the hazard of it's lean.
