OF THE CITY OF CAMPBELL GRANTING AN APPEAL AND
OVERTURNING AN ADMINISTRATIVE DENIAL IN ORDER

IN AN R-M-S (MULTIPLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) ZONING
DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF MS. CECILE MOORAD, ON
BEHALF OF CENTRAL PARK II HOMEOWNERS
ASSOCIATION. FILE NO. PLN2000-160.
After notification and public heating, 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 PLN2000-160:
1. The proposed Tree Removal Permit is consistent with the R-M-S (Multi-Family Residential)
zoning designation and the General Plan residential land use designation.
2. The proposed tree replacement plan of a 1:1 ratio of 24-inch box Shumard Red Oaks, Fern
Pines, and Tupelo Trees is consistent with the requirements of the Tree Protection Ordinance.
3. The proposed replacement trees will suffice as replacements for the trees to be removed and
will continue the diversity of tree species found in the community.
4. The existing Pine trees are causing substantial damage to the existing building and drainage
system.
5. The situation cannot be reasonably controlled or remedied through regular maintenance of
the Pine trees and property.
Based on the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
1. The approved Tree Removal Permit is consistent with the City's General Plan and Zoning
Ordinance.
2. The approved Tree Removal Permit is consistent with the City's Tree Protection Ordinance.
