(Oppose only the removal of the Canary Pine Trees. I'm in support of everything else.) MRHOA will only reimburse the City up to $5,000 in 2025 and another additional $5,000 in 2026 for replanting. This is not nearly enough to cover the replacement of the trees. Please request for continuance, which could allow its own arborist to possibly provide a less drastic solution than the City's arborist.
Dear Mayor and Councilmembers,
(Oppose only the removal of the Canary Pine Trees. I'm in support of everything else.)
Serrano is a very noisy street. Our house backs up to it and we have been looking into ways of mitigating the road noise. Removing the Canary Pine trees would cause even more road noise and make Serrano look barren. We understand the need to remove the eucalyptus trees. However, it seems the reason for removing the Canary Pines is because they weren't planted correctly 50 years ago.
I see that there is a suggestion to replace the trees "where suitable", and that the planting options are "limited". I'm afraid that if these trees are removed, no suitable replacement will be planted. May I suggest simply trimming (instead of removing) these Canary Pine trees so they are kept in check?
