45 Elsie St

Site: 1

Reason(s) for Tree Removal: Profuse fruit production creates slipping hazard on steep slope. Species is undesirable due to root- infrastructure impacts. Purple leaf plum trees are not a long-lived species, and are prone to root failures 20 years after planting due to decay. Past topping cuts by PG&E (for clearance from overhead high-voltage lines) increases risk of branch failures. Tree will be replaced with more appropriate species by property owner.
