Perhaps Forterra could toss a little $ our way? No way assessing a tree should be >$700. Preserving our large trees is in the public interet - Shoreline should NOT be charging individual homeowners since the entire city benefits.<br />Just My Opinionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13715767354670152924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5741412946805763929.post-55841119057763156522022-07-30T07:00:00.677-07:002022-07-30T07:00:00.677-07:00I believe LFP has strict and enforced restrictions...I believe LFP has strict and enforced restrictions on removing trees that contractors and homeowners must adhere to or they will be significantly fined.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5741412946805763929.post-89042115512126407402022-07-29T22:10:23.274-07:002022-07-29T22:10:23.274-07:00Thank you, Kathy for jumping through the hoops to ...Thank you, Kathy for jumping through the hoops to get this beautiful tree protected. It really is sad that the city makes the homeowner pay for this protection, which ultimately will dissuade people from protecting a beloved tree.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5741412946805763929.post-65901133561662672162022-07-29T13:06:57.156-07:002022-07-29T13:06:57.156-07:00Thanks.

The cost will result in lower income folks not being able to protect their trees and when the trees are removed, this will perpetuate the documented “heat islands” concern of low income neighborhoods. In the name of equity, our city should find a low cost way to determine which trees are landmark status.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5741412946805763929.post-19797826593044579912022-07-29T08:57:19.504-07:002022-07-29T08:57:19.504-07:00Does LFP have that program?Does LFP have that program?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5741412946805763929.post-17466521205406900282022-07-29T08:35:11.167-07:002022-07-29T08:35:11.167-07:00I worry about my ROW trees being removed pretty re...I worry about my ROW trees being removed pretty regularly since the rezone. It would significantly reduce the quality of life for my family and the 1,000s of small creatures who make a home in their branches. Neighboring homes have been torn down all around me and none of the vegetation preserved--covered edge to edge with concrete and ashpalt. The ROW trees in my area are some of the largest left standing. I moved to Shoreline, in part, for the trees. I didn't expect to spend so much time mourning them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5741412946805763929.post-64368156825346462062022-07-29T08:20:39.565-07:002022-07-29T08:20:39.565-07:00This is so awesome.
