Re: File No: PLN2009-144
Address: 866 Campbell Ave. -Thai Orchid Restaurant
Application: Tree Removal Permit
Dear Applicants:
The Community Development Director has conditionally approved your Tree Removal Permit application
(PLN2009-144) for the removal of one (1) multi-trunk (18" - 19'' - 24" diameter) Siberian Elm (Ulmus
pumilu) tree located within the front yard of property located at the above referenced address.
Your request has been approved subject to the following Condition of Approval:
1. The applicant shall plant one (1) 36-inch box Japanese Black Pine tree as indicated on the revised
replanting plan. The replacement tree shall be planted within 30 days of the effective date of this
approval, unless accepted horticultural practices dictate a preferential planting period for the species
chosen as a replacement tree.
The Tree Removal Permit has been approved based upon the City's determination, with a supporting
recommendation by a Certified Arborist, that the tree has damaged the main water supply pipe that serves the
principal structure, necessitating removal of the tree to allow replacement of the pipe. It has been further
determined that this situation cannot be remedied through a reroute of the pipe as this would incur major root
loss to the tree, compromising its health and stability.
This approval is final in l0 calendar days (excluding days during the City Hall closure) of the Community
Development Director's decision, unless an appeal is received in writing at the City of Campbell City Cferk's
Office, on or before January 7, 2010 (due to the City Hall closure). If an appeal is received, you will be
immediately notified of its receipt. Otherwise, you may remove the subject tree at the close of the appeal period.
If you have any questions regarding this approval, please contact me at (408) 866-2193 or via email at
