CC Resolution 10073 RESOLUTION NO. 10073 BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CAMPBELL APPROVING A TREE REMOV AL PERMIT (PLN2002-05) TO ALLOW THE REMOV AL OF 35 OF 37 TREES ON PROPERTY OWNED BY CORE DEVELOPMENT INC. AT 117 GILMAN A VENUE IN A P-D (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT) ZONING DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF MR. CHRIS NEALE, ON BEHALF OF COROEM BUILDERS. FILE NO. PLN2002-05. 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 City Council did find as follows with respect to application PLN2002-05: 1. The site was formerly developed with a trailer court that was vacated in August 2000. 2. The existing trees are generally situated in rows towards the center of the project site precluding a reasonable building pad location within the center of the project. 3. The quantity and location of the trees throughout the project site would preclude any redevelopment of the site, if the trees were to be required to remain. 4. Replacement trees will be provided at a one to one ratio, for a minimum of 35 new replacement trees, of a variety of species to continue the diversity of plant materials present in the community. Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the City Council further finds and concludes that: 1. The retention of the trees restricts the economic enjoyment of the property or creates an unusual hardship for the property owner by severely limiting the use of the property in a manner not typically experienced by owners of similarly zoned and situated properties, and the applicant has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Planning Commission that there are no reasonable alternatives to preserve the trees. 2. There is a reasonable relationship and rough proportionality between the Conditions of Approval and the impacts of the project. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council approves a Tree Removal Permit (PLN2002-05) to allow the removal of 35 of 37 trees on property owned by Core Development Inc. at 117 Gilman A venue, subject to the following conditions: 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.
