Dear Nancy,
Here are the responses that we have.
16 Grapevine: The plot plan identifies three locations without DBH, these were large shrubs that were in the setback
with nothing larger than 6" removed.
198 Bedford Street: The builder claims that there were a few trees that were in very poor condition that he removed.
Chris did not have a chance to deem them hazards or not hazards and is following up with the builder with regards to
next steps.
193-195 Bedford Street: This project has not been closed out yet. There was an additional site visit that was done
after the first one that approved the removal of a dead and hazardous tree that was not noted on the plot plan. Chris
is working with the builder on next steps.
3 Underwood Ave: This property was originally submitted as a Spring Street address and the side setback was only
15' and did not capture the large oak tree at that time. Chris has spoken with the builder and they are aware that they
will need to pay additional fees for both the removal and mitigation of this tree.
19 Locke Lane: The Builder noted that there were no trees being removed at the time of demo and says that the
owner wanted them removed after the house was removed and the builder did not check back in with the Town.
When there are no trees agreed to for removal we do not do a follow up site visit as there is no planting or mitigation
requirements. Chris has reached out to the builder and they are aware that they will need to pay additional fees for
both the removal and mitigation of the trees.
Please contact me with any questions or concerns. Thank you.
David
