requires developments to submit plans that "...(4) protects significant trees,
natural systems, and habitat". Note that a significant tree is defined as a tree
having DBH (Diameter at Breast Height) of six inches or more. If any of the
trees within this site have a DBH of greater than six inches, a review of the trees
shall be conducted with Tim Buchanan, City Forester (221 6361) to determine
