Re: Street Tree Removal at 14945 1051h Ave. SE
:• •
The City of Yelm has reviewed your request to remove the Sweet Gum tree located in the City of
Yelm right of way. The tree was damaged in the wind storm of the weekend of August 29th. Our
best estimate is that the top third of the tree is missing and approx. 2 feet from the break the trunk
has been opened inviting damage from insects and blight.
Based on this observation the City of Yelm is issuing a permit to remove this tree with the condition
that the tree be replaced with a similar tree of 1 -1/2 inch caliper and the stump be left level with
the surrounding grade. The new tree is to be spaced approximately 10 feet from the existing tree in
the right of way in front of your residence at 14945 105th Ave SE.
Our records of your plat list the street trees as Sweet Gums. As we discussed moving the tree closer
to your driveway may cause a sight /distance problem. The Festival Sweet Gum (Liquidambar
styracifua Festival) is a columnar tree and should not block your vision as a pyramidal tree.
A street tree removal permit is ready for you to sign at the City of Yelm Community Development
Department.
If you have any questions or have a problem locating the Festival Sweet Gum please contact me at
360- 458 -8407 or at garyc@ci.yelm.wa.us. Thank you.
Sincerely
Gary Carlson
