HomeMy WebLinkAboutCAPSTONE COTTAGES - PDP - PDP140004 - REPORTS - TREE MANAGEMENT PLANPicture # 9: The right side of this picture, and/or the east side of the base of this tree, shows no root flair at
grade, which would imply little/or no holding roots on this side creating structural stability issues.
Recommend: REMOVAL - Due to the overall state of decline that this tree is in.
Please let me know if you require further information.
Thank you for allowing me to assist you with this evaluation process.

Picture # 3: (South side view) Just above grade are two visible pockets of decay.
Picture # 2: (North side view) at 5' above grade cottonwood splits into two main leaders. This picture shows
included bark between the two main leaders. This is a structural defect, increasing the likeness that this could
be a point where the tree could split, or fail. At present, I did not see gapping between these two leaders, or
noticeable pockets of decay, between the two main leaders.

Re: Report on current condition and recommendations on one mature cottonwood, and one mature American elm.
The following are my findings and recommendations on these specific trees after providing an inspection on 11/25/14,
to document the health and potential hazards for risk assessment, and future planning.
Cottonwood is located on the southwest most corner of the property (just north of the Bank of Colorado
building, on the NE corner of Lincoln & Lemay, in Fort Collins).
Picture # 1: This 66" cottonwood is roughly 70' tall.
