Existing Tree Removal Feasibility Letter
This letter is intended to supplement the Mitigation Plan included in the Mason Street Infrastructure
PDP. There are five (5) species of trees on site including: Cottonwood, Siberian Elm, Boxelder, Russian
Olive, and White Poplar.
As depicted on the mitigation plan, a total of thirteen (13) trees are to be removed and twenty-eight
(28) to remain or transplanted. The reason for tree removal is due to the proposed development of
Mason Street Infrastructure. The following trees are proposed to be removed: Trees 1-11, 18, 38 (as
associated with the Tree Mitigation List on the Tree Mitigation Plan). Further explanation for the
removal of these trees is found below.
