PC Res 3591 RESOLUTION NO. 3591 BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF CAMPBELL GRANTING A TREE REMOVAL PERMIT (PLN2004-45) TO ALLOW THE REMOVAL OF ONE PROTECTED TREE ON PROPERTY OWNED BY KEN AND CHRIS CAMPBELL LOCATED AT 1440 JUANITA WAY IN AN R-I-IO (SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) ZONING DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF MR. KEN GRIDLEY, ON BEHALF OF KEN AND CHRIS CAMPBELL. FILE NO. PLN2004-45. After notification and public hearing, as specified by law, and after presentation by the Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed. After due consideration of all evidence presented, the Planning Commission did find as follows with respect to application PLN2004-45: 1. The proposed Tree Removal Permit is consistent with the R-I-I0 (Single-family Residential) zoning designation and the General Plan Low Density Residential designation. 2. The proposed tree replacement requirement of one 24-inch box size tree is consistent with the requirements of the Tree Protection Ordinance. 3. The proposed replacement tree will be a sufficient replacement for the Cedar tree to be removed and shall continue the diversity of tree species found in the community. 4. According to the Arborist's Report it is in poor structural condition because it has been topped and the main leader removed in the past, resulting in branches that are weakly attached to the tree and may be vulnerable to failure in future years. Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes that: 1. The Deodar Cedar tree is in poor health, and the applicant has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Planning Commission that this danger cannot be controlled or remedied through reasonable preservation and/or preventative procedures and practices. 2. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the Conditions of Approval and the impacts of the project. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission grants a Tree Removal Permit (PLN2004-45) to allow the removal of one protected tree (Cedar) on property owned by Ken and Chris Campbell located at 1440 Juanita Way, subject to the following conditions: Planning Commission Resolution No. 3591 PLN2004-45 -1440 Juanita Way- Tree Removal Permit Page 2 Where approval by the Director of Community Development, City Engineer, Public Works Director, City Attorney or Fire Department is required, that review shall be for compliance with all applicable conditions of approval, adopted policies and guidelines, ordinances, laws and regulations and accepted engineering practices for the item under review.
