INTRODUCTION
The City of Coronado's Street Tree Master Plan provides a current and detailed plan of management of the City of Coronado's diverse urban forest, which includes over 149 species of 9,083 public trees. These trees are located in the twenty-one (21) City parks, on street parkways, and the Municipal Golf Course. This plan addresses how the City's urban forest is managed, both now and into the future. The Department of Public Services & Engineering and the Street Tree Committee, a standing committee of the Coronado City Council, are responsible for the management of the urban forest.

This is the third revision of the City of Coronado Street Tree Master Plan. This plan is to be re- evaluated and revised every five (5) years as a joint responsibility of the Public Services Supervisor and the Street Tree Committee. This re-evaluation will ensure that the City of Coronado Street Tree Master Plan remains current, accurate, and reflective of the community's trends and needs. After careful review, the revised Street Tree Master Plan is forwarded to the City Council for approval.

VISION
The City of Coronado contains a sustainable urban forest consisting of a multi-aged diverse collection of tree species that are well adapted to Coronado's coastal and urban environments. This enhances the quality of life for both residents and visitors of the City. A healthy urban forest benefits the City by contributing towards improving air and water quality, conserving energy, reducing noise pollution, providing habitats for wildlife, and enhancing scenic opportunities within the City, thus increasing community pride and attracting visitors to the City and downtown business district.

Utilizing proper and cost-effective methods, the public trees continue to be regularly maintained to the highest International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) standards possible. We believe that the City's care of public trees serves as an example to private property owners as to the proper care and maintenance of their own trees, since a large portion of Coronado's urban forest resides on private property. Many historically significant trees or potentially designated 'Heritage Trees' are located in residential yards. It is the City's vision that residents willingly and voluntarily preserve and protect trees under their stewardship and, where room is available, plant additional trees on private property.

This vision is accomplished by ensuring an ongoing staged tree replacement program, an ongoing evaluation of the appropriateness of tree species and placement, and mindful decision- making to preserve the legacy of Coronado's urban forest for future generations.

Through the City of Coronado's commitment to a properly maintained and healthy urban forest, as well as through its public education and tree awareness efforts, the City of Coronado continues to be recognized as a "Tree City USA" proudly designated in 1984. The list of goals is the roadmap for the City's vision of an ever-growing and diverse urban forest and outlines the City's dedication to sustaining the benefits and beauty of our urban forest so that it may be enjoyed by future generations.

GOALS
These goals have been identified to further the City's vision of its urban forest.

Goal 1: Increase the total number of street trees
Status: Many potential vacant street tree sites remain within the City.

Action Step 1A: Identify appropriate vacant tree planting sites on City property.

Action Step 1B: Contact and assist property owners that are adjacent to a vacant street tree site to promote and encourage them to participate with the City in planting a street tree of their choosing, from the approved street tree list, on that site.

Action Step 1C: Ensure that any tree removed from City property at the request of a resident is replaced by another approved tree, unless special circumstances preclude it.

Action Step 1D: Ensure adequate irrigation is provided to all newly planted parkway trees, which includes the installation of tree bubblers at the drip line of the tree.

Benchmark: Plant 20-30 trees each year on City property.

Goal 2: Increase tree species diversity
Status: | Currently Pepper trees and Palms comprise of over 40% of the City's tree inventory.

Action Step 2A: Minimize the impact of disease and invasive pests on specific tree species by restricting the planting of species which exceed 10% of the total tree inventory.

Action Step 2B: Balance the tree population by ensuring that the population includes young, middle-aged, and mature trees.

Action Step 2C: Encourage biodiversity by incorporating a wide range of trees with an emphasis on drought tolerant and native species.

Action Step 2D: The Pepper tree population of over 700 is peaking in age with 266 in gooc condition, 481 in fair condition, and 28 in poor condition. The City and Street Tree Committee will proactively seek replacement of Pepper trees that are in decline with a better diversity of healthy trees.

Goal 3: Increase public awareness of proper tree care and the value of trees in the urban environment
Status: Presently, the Coronado Street Tree Committee staffs an educational booth at the annual Coronado Flower Show. The City sponsors an annual community tree planting in celebration of Arbor Day.

Action Step 3A: Submit articles to traditional and online media. Submit articles to the Coronado Eagle/Journal, the Coronado Currents Newsletter, Coronado Times, and community blogs to inform the public about Coronado's trees, tree care, and maintenance. Emphasize the value and importance of proper watering, even during drought conditions.

Action Step 3B: Develop an online library of resources on the Street Tree Committee page of the City's website.

Action Step 3C: Staff an information booth at the annual Coronado Flower Show to promote proper tree care and answer questions from the public about trees in our community.

Action Step 3D: Solicit participation from Navy, community groups, and Coronado residents to participate in the annual Arbor Day tree planting event.

Goal 4: Care and protection of trees
Status: The City maintains all public trees and sets standards for their care. There are presently no standards of care for private property trees. Maintenance is the responsibility of the property owner.

Action Step 4A: Assure that contractors are required to follow tree protection guidelines during construction projects by performing plan checks on new construction and performing site inspections.

Action Step 4B: Assure construction sites are adequately watering trees during construction projects.

Action Step 4C: Revise the Street Tree Ordinance to help implement the goals of the Tree Master Plan; update the Ordinance as needed to reflect current conditions.

HISTOrICAL PERSPECTIVE
The Coronado peninsula was deeded to Pedro Carrillo as a 'wedding gift' by the Governor of Mexican California on May 15, 1864. At the time of his ownership, the two "islands', North and South, were covered with sage, sumac, Christmas berry, scrub oak, willows, reeds, grasses, and wildflowers. The islands were used by Carrillo for cattle grazing. The islands were known at that time for their lemonade berry trees, which were ten to twenty feet high, with trunks eight to fifteen inches thick. Century plants grew in profusion. In 1874, woodcutters leased the land for the exclusive purpose of removing and selling wood. In the late 1880s, both the North and South islands were cleared of brush by the Coronado Beach Company and all vegetation was stripped from the land.

The Coronado Beach Company filed Articles of Incorporation on April 7, 1886 with the San Diego County Clerk's office. After the South Island was surveyed and a plat completed, a nursery was set up to propagate the trees that would later become parkway and rights-of-way trees. Orange Avenue would have orange trees, Olive Avenue would have olive trees, and Palm Avenue would have palms. Early efforts at plant establishment were difficult due to a profusion of rabbits and a lack of water.

By 1892, Coronado's population had grown to 1,200. There were three public parks and many varieties of street trees had been planted.

With no city government yet, in April 1894, the Coronado Beach Company formed a 'Park and Shade Tree' committee. Early on, before piped-in irrigation was available, the park and street trees were watered by the Coronado Water Wagon as it watered down the dirt streets. The Committee realized that the water wagon was not fully meeting the trees' water needs. An advertisement was placed in the San Diego Union asking for irrigation workers to come to Coronado and work in teams to hand water the trees.

In 1901, Louis C. Bandel became Superintendent of Parks and remained in that position for forty years. He planted most of the trees in Coronado's parks and on City property, including parkway strips, before he retired in 1941. In his early days, he was assisted by Kate Sessions.

Kate Sessions was responsible for planting some of the Torrey Pines in Coronado, raising them at her nursery, then located in Mission Hills (refer to Appendix M).

In 1950, the City Council passed the first of several resolutions establishing a 'Tree Schedule, a list of approved street trees. In November 1952, forty-two small cedars were planted down the center of the Orange Avenue median as memorial donations. These are the Deodar cedars so prominent along the Orange Avenue median today. The 'Tree Schedule' was amended twice in the next several years, and in 1965 a new 'Tree Schedule' was established. This schedule was in place for more than a decade, being repealed in January of 1976, when a new 'Tree Schedule' was adopted. Then in 1978, the Coronado City Council passed a resolution establishing an Page | 8

Attachment 2
updated, approved City Street Tree List, removing trees which were associated with a high number of maintenance issues; in 1984 the Council made minor changes to the City Street Tree List. Finally, in 1987, the street tree review committee (a precursor to the Street Tree Committee) was developed to review and recommend modifications to the approved street tree list. The committee recommended the deletion of several street trees from the list and added a list of experimental street trees acceptable for planting.

In 1984, Coronado became a 'Tree City USA' for the first time. The National Arbor Day Foundation developed the 'Tree City USA' designation to recognize cities that had an active management program for their urban forest. Criteria they used to determine a city's eligibility include: (1) whether the city had a governing tree body; (2) whether the city held an Arbor Day Celebration with tree planting; (3) whether the city had a community forestry program with an annual budget of at least $2.00 per capita; and (4) whether the city had a community tree ordinance. To this day, the City remains designated as a 'Tree City USA'.

The first Coronado community tree planting was organized by Shannon Player, through the guidance of People for Trees, a non-profit urban tree planting organization. Mayor Mary Herron attended the first tree planting in Coronado during the winter of 1991, when 19 trees were planted on the 900 block of H Avenue. Homeowners who lived adjacent to the rights-of-way where the trees were being planted contributed $30.00 per tree and helped to plant the trees, if possible. Three additional tree plantings followed, also organized by Shannon Player, with a grant through the Urban Forestry division of the California Department of Forestry. Each grant was for $5,000, which paid for the trees. At least 150 trees were planted as a result of those grants. After that time, the City of Coronado paid for the trees. The tree plantings became Arbor Day Celebrations and have been held yearly ever since.

The Street Tree Committee was proposed by Shannon Player to the City Council in 1993. The Coronado Street Tree Committee was formed in 1993 and the first meeting was held in November of that same year. Prior to that time, the City Council members were the standing Tree Committee, with a horticulturist adviser from the community, John Blocker, as well as the head of Parks and Trees, David Brazier.

The Street Tree Committee is comprised of five members appointed by the City Council and was originally developed by the City Council to review the Approved Street Tree list and make recommendations with regard to additions and deletions. The Committee soon took on a greater role in providing recommendations to staff and the Council on a variety of tree-related topics. Aside from reducing the need for Council review on tree removal requests, the Committee enhanced citizen involvement and decision-making in the urban forestry management process. Street Tree Committee Chairpersons have included a number of civic- minded citizens.

CURRENT URBAN FOREST
Coronado's current urban forest consists of 9,083 publicly owned trees located on public rights-of-way, parks, and at the Municipal Golf Course. The City's public tree inventory is increasing by approximately 20-30 trees per year. The majority of trees are planted on that portion of the public right-of-way known as the parkway strip, that area located between the sidewalk and the street. Refer to Appendix L for a diagram showing the location of the parkway strip in relation to the public street and sidewalk.

The City currently has Municipal Code sections (Chapter 52.32) governing trees growing on public property. Additionally, a City-approved street tree list provides a listing of species well adapted to growing in Coronado. An experimental tree list was developed in an effort to maintain species diversity. Trees may be added to or removed from the experimental tree list at the discretion of the Street Tree Committee.

The City's tree program is administered through the Department of Public Services & Engineering. There is an in-house tree crew currently consisting of two regular employees (one of whom is a Certified Arborist, contributing to the excellent care provided to the City's urban forest). This crew performs scheduled maintenance pruning and takes care of work order requests. The Department of Public Services & Engineering's in-house tree crew is augmented by contractors performing annual palm tree trimming and other tree care activities as needed.

For example, approximately 3,127 palms are trimmed annually throughout the City by a contractor. The Department of Public Services & Engineering's Parks Supervisor/City Arborist oversees the City's urban forest and the day-to-day operations of the in-house tree crew. The trees on Coronado's Golf Course are managed by Recreation & Golf Services, following the same tree care standards as the rest of the City.

Citywide tree plantings occur twice per year, once in the spring and once in the fall. The spring planting typically coincides with Arbor Day and is facilitated by community volunteers recruited by the Street Tree Committee. The fall planting may either be completed using volunteers or by employing a contractor hired by the City. All street tree plantings will comply with Appendix D criteria. Additionally, new home construction and additions over 500 square feet must meet a requirement of planting a street tree in the parkway if one can be accommodated, which helps to augment the urban forest. Appendix K excerpts the Coronado Municipal Code sections relating to tree responsibilities.

The development of commercial properties and multi-family dwellings affords the City the opportunity to require the planting of trees along parkways and rights-of-way when feasible.

The Design Review Commission reviews the design and landscape features on developments. It is through this review process that existing trees may be preserved. New trees, as well as other landscaping features, can be added both to private property and public property inventories.

Often, encroachment permits and maintenance agreements are required for commercial Page | 10

Attachment 2
properties installing landscaping in the rights-of-way. Through the utilization of all these methods, the City's public urban forest is increasing by approximately 20-30 trees annually.

Appendix H identifies prominent trees in Coronado public parks. Appendix I gives an accurate breakdown of the City's (public property) urban forest by species and, above all, indicates the ongoing diversity of the species comprising the City's urban forest. Appendix J shows pictorial representations of selected common street trees, with their characteristics, shape and size, and other considerations.

Over time, the number of mature trees on private property have been reduced due to increased development of private property. At one time, many large, specimen trees such as Torrey Pines, Star Pines and Moreton Bay Figs graced many private properties. Over the years, however, many have been removed to make room for new construction. In the village, private property trees are typically found along rear and side yard property lines. In some cases, trees are also found in the middle of lots, between houses and garages. The City can assist builders who want to save large trees by advising them on soil preparation and foundation design. Large trees on adjacent properties can also be protected by this service.

Very few private trees exist in the Coronado Cays mainly due to the fact that the original design of the development focused on creating views of the bays, channels and ocean, and therefore restricted high growth vegetation in these areas. Because of this desire, most of the private property trees in the Coronado Cays are located in the common areas or in residential front yards and are ornamental in nature.

Finally, it must be emphasized that property owners have the greatest impact on our urban forest; not only are they responsible for the complete health of the trees on their property but they are, by City ordinance (Municipal Code, section 52.32.120 D), responsible for watering adjacent street trees. In an effort to help property owners with their role in caring for the street trees, Coronado has posted a "Caring for Your Street Tree" brochure on its City website. This effort is an integral part of extending knowledge about trees which will hopefully spark an even greater interest in learning more about the beauty and benefits of an urban forest in the community.

BENEFITS OF AN URBAN FOREST
A healthy urban forest provides numerous benefits to a community. Other than the obvious benefits of improved aesthetics and livability, trees aid in the reduction of greenhouse gases, improve air and water quality, help conserve energy, and reduce noise pollution. The following information briefly describes those benefits.

1. Greenhouse Gas Reduction
Certain atmospheric gases including carbon dioxide trap energy from the sun causing the earth's temperature to rise. This phenomenon is called the greenhouse effect. Excessive warming of the planet induces negative environmental consequences requiring effective solutions to curtail this greenhouse effect. Trees play their own vital role in neutralizing the effects of climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions through the process of absorbing carbon dioxide from the air and releasing oxygen, to reducing the world's energy consumption by shading and cooling urban environments and providing protection from cold winds.

2. Improved Air Quality
An urban forest contributes towards improving the air quality. Tree foliage absorbs carbon dioxide and in turn releases oxygen through the photosynthesis process.

Moreover, leaf surfaces capture particulate air pollution that can be harmful to human and other animal life.

3. Improved Water Quality
Trees help improve water quality by capturing and absorbing rain, thus preventing it from becoming urban runoff. Additionally, tree canopies break up heavy raindrops, thus reducing soil erosion. Tree planting sites allow rainwater to seep into the ground, as opposed to paved surfaces where water picks up contaminants and runs into the storm water runoff system. This contaminated water then goes directly to the ocean or bay, causing water and beach pollution.

4. Energy Conservation
Strategically placed trees within an urban forest can be instrumental in energy conservation by reducing the amount of energy expended for cooling or heating. Shade trees are essential to reduce the heat island effect. Heat island effect is a common phenomenon experienced in urban areas with large amounts of asphalt or paving where heat radiated from hardscapes raises the air temperature by about five degrees. Shade from tree canopies mitigates the heat island effect by reducing the air temperature by approximately five degrees. As well, trees mitigate exposure to winds, thus reducing winter heating requirements.

Page | 12
City of Coronado STREET TREE MASTER PLAN 2022
Attachment 2

5. Noise Pollution Reduction
Trees can be very effective towards noise mitigation. In addition to absorbing pollution, trees absorb unpleasant traffic sounds from the urban environment. It is the epitome of a village-like atmosphere featuring a pedestrian oriented street design and environment.

The commercial district is surrounded by the residential area, both of which would benefit from further noise mitigation through the increased use of trees.

6. Economic Benefit
A study from the California Polytechnic State University calculates the costs of tree maintenance and assigns a value to the benefits from a hypothetical tree over its 40- year life. The study is a compilation of several tree cost-benefit analyses. According to the study, the costs of planting and maintaining a tree are more than offset by the benefits it provides. Strategically placed trees around a home can reduce summer cooling costs by as much as 30%, while winter heating costs can be reduced by a similar percentage by the use of trees as windbreaks. The presence of trees has a positive effect on occupancy rates and residential home sales. Neighborhood greenspaces or greenways typically increase the value of properties located nearby. For more information regarding details of the benefits of trees to communities and the environment, refer to the Arbor Day Foundation at www.arborday.org

7. Visual Enhancement
Research findings support the logic that scenic quality and naturalness of the landscape directly enhance human well-being, both physically and psychologically, and contribute to other important human benefits. Trees also play an important part in breaking up the mass and bulk of manmade structures, as well as providing a more tranquil setting.

When a business/commercial area is visually enhanced by the placement of trees, the overall atmosphere is more welcoming, providing additional shade, color, and natural beauty. Homeowners can enrich their existing landscaping by planting more trees, which also may potentially increase the value of their home.

8. Improve Community Health and Welfare
Enjoying the beauty and tranquility of trees creates a sense of well-being and reduces stress, therefore enhancing quality of life. Planting and caring for trees is a shared responsibility which can be a positive, rewarding experience for the community as a whole. The opportunity to cultivate nature in urban settings can encourage teamwork and a sense of pride and ownership among the community, as well as provide new educational experiences for adults and children, alike.

9. Biodiversity
Trees contribute to the green infrastructure of shrubs and flowers which benefit birds, butterflies, pollinators, and other animals. Canopy trees, as well as ornamentals, contribute to a species-rich urban environment which integrates beneficial habitat into the community.

TREE REMOVALS
Tree or palm removals on public property occur at the discretion of the Department of Public Services. Trees and palms on public property are to be removed if they present a condition at is hazardous, are in declining or poor health and the condition cannot be corrected b unina or any other means. Removal may also be warranted if the cost of maintainina th tree or palm is greater than its value.

Requests for public tree or palm removals are reviewed by the City Arborist and/or the Street Tree Committee. The Director of Public Services & Engineering shall have the authority to orde emoval of public trees or palms that present an imminent hazard. Requests for removals for reasons other than hazardous conditions are normally referred to the Street Tree Committee for consideration. Concerns including property damage, residential and/or landscape renovation, maintenance problems, declining tree health, non-approved tree species and environmental issues may be reasons for approval of tree removal requests. Complaints regarding leaf and fruit litter, excess shade, view obstructions or species selection are generally not reasons for tree removal. The Director of Public Services & Engineering, after considering the recommendations of the City Arborist and/or the Street Tree Committee, shall have the authority to issue or not issue a removal permit. This decision can be appealed to the City Council within ten days after a denial of the tree removal by making a written request to the Director of Public Services & Engineering to have the request for tree removal placed on a City Council agenda.

HAZARD TREE ASSESSMENT
A tree is determined to be hazardous when it presents an imminent hazard or threat to the safety of persons or property. If a tree possesses a structural defect that may cause the tree or part of the tree to fall on someone or something of value, and the condition is determined to be imminent, the tree is considered hazardous.

The City uses the national standard, the I.S.A. - TREE HAZARD EVALUATION FORM, as a basis to determine the hazard rating of a tree. This form, or an approved equivalent, must be completed by a Certified Arborist. The form is comprised of categories such as:
a) Tree Characteristics b) Tree Health c) Site Condition d) Target e) Noted Tree Defects f) Hazard Rating g) Hazard Abatement The Certified Arborist will oversee the preparation of the evaluation form and address those categories. Category 'F' will assign a numerical value to the overall evaluation which determines the degree/potential risk of the hazard. Category 'G' will recommend options to reduce/mitigate the hazard.

AUTHORIZED TREES,
THeMeD Streets & View Corridors

AUTHORIZED TREES
The City provides a list of Approved Street Trees, Experimental Trees, and Restricted Use Trees. Various tree species corresponding to each aforementioned category are listed on the City's Approved Street Tree List, which is provided on the following page.

PALMS
Palms may be allowed in areas where the spacing is too restrictive for canopy trees and as provided by a City approved development plan (i.e. business area development plan). The addition of palms will be limited, however, due to the continual maintenance cost of palms and the high number already in the city.

THEMED STREETS AND CORRIDORS
Themed streets utilizing species on the 'restricted use' list may be approved for additional trees of the same species. Streets can only be a themed street or view corridor upon the decision of the City Council.

View corridors are streets that allow an unobstructed view of pleasing scenery beyond the immediate confines of the street. View corridors are established for the pleasure of the public rather than any specific residents. Ocean and Glorietta Boulevards, 1100 block Isabella Avenue, SR 75 and Strand Way are examples of view corridors. These streets or the terminus of a street adjacent to the bay or ocean may be approved for palms on the 'Restricted Use' Tree List in an effort to maintain unobstructed views.

As part of our themed street and view corridor, the thirty-six (36) Deodar Cedar trees planted along the Orange Avenue medians in Coronado are one of the most recognizable features of the City. They are considered by many to be a significant and endearing part of the community's heritage since they were initially planted as memorial trees in the early 1950's.

Many of these Deodar Cedar trees have declined and fallen into poor health, by which their condition cannot be corrected by pruning or any other means. Recognizing that many of the current and future Deodar Cedar/Afghan Pine trees along this important corridor will need to be properly replaced and maintained throughout the years, the City and the Street Tree Committee have implemented a replacement program to ensure the proper care and preservation of this vital City asset. The Orange Avenue medians are an endearing part of the community. The 100 block of E Avenue is also a designated as a themed street.

Heritage Tree PROGRAM
A Coronado Heritage Tree is one that has been designated by the City as having a significant combination of attributes that make it worthy of receiving acclaim and protection. This Program acknowledges that Heritage Trees, whether located on public or private property, are distinct and unique living resources of our community. Although it is the intent of the program to provide reasonable assurance that Coronado's tree heritage will be preserved for future generations, it is not intended to be a means to obstruct the development of private or public property.

PROGRAM GOALS
The Heritage Tree Program has three goals:
• To establish a process of designating Heritage Trees located on either public or private property.
• To encourage proper maintenance, care and protection of designated Heritage Trees. • To increase public awareness of the environmental benefit of Heritage Trees and trees in general.

CRITERIA FOR HERITAGE TREE NOMINATION
Any tree or palm growing on public or private property within the boundaries of the City that meets the following criteria may be considered for Heritage Tree designation:

1. Must be structurally sound, without disease, true to its genetic form, and not topped or badly pruned.

2. Must have full potential to reach mature size and form, taking into consideration site constraints such as adjacent buildings, parkways, roadways, utilities, etc.

3. Must be visible from publicly accessible location(s). Furthermore, a minimum of two of the following four are required:

4. Any tree or palm that has arboricultural significance, including but not limited to a specimen that is:
a. Distinctive in size, beauty, structure, or age, as compared to others of the same species in the City; or
b. An unusual species for the Coronado area and/or seldom found growing in southern California urban areas; or
c. Identified as playing a significant role in the landscape or architecture of a specific location.

Appendix E | 1
City of Coronado STREET TREE MASTER PLAN 2022
Attachment 2

5. Any Southern California native tree that has a diameter at standard height (DSH) of at least 8 inches, as measured at 4.5 feet above grade.

6. Any tree not a Southern California native that is at least 24 inches in diameter at (DSH).

HERITAGE TREE
The Heritage Tree is described as follows:

PUBLIC: Designated trees on public property are protected in perpetuity unless they no longer meet the qualifying criteria or are removed by City Council action.

PRIVATE: Whereas Heritage Trees on public property retain that designation on essentially a permanent basis, private property owners of designated Heritage Trees have the right to petition for removal of such designation.

In cases where a Heritage Tree is located on the property line, the Owners of both properties must be in agreement as to the designation of the tree.

INCENTIVES
The following incentives are to encourage private property owners to apply for Heritage Tree status for a tree on their property:
• The City will provide to the Owner recommendations regarding the proper care and maintenance of a Designated Heritage Tree.
• The City will provide an inspection of each Designated Heritage Tree every four years.

The inspection shall be conducted by City staff and an International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Standards certified arborist, with findings provided to the Owner. • A Designated Heritage Tree may be pruned by the Owner. The Owner is encouraged to trim a Designated Heritage Tree in accordance with ISA standards so that the pruning would not reduce the tree's height or crown diameter, alter the tree's general appearance, increase the tree's susceptibility to insects or disease, or otherwise increase its risk of mortality. Upon request, the City will consult with the Owner regarding acceptable pruning methods and techniques.
• If considering removal or an action that would damage a Designated Heritage Tree, the City will, upon request, consult with the Owner regarding possible alternatives to address the condition(s) necessitating removal or potential damage to the tree.

Appendix E | 2
City of Coronado STREET TREE MASTER PLAN 2022
Attachment 2

NOMINATION PROCEDURE
Nominations for Heritage Tree designation shall be filed with the Director of Public Services & Engineering and contain the following information:
• Location, as precise as practical.
• Description. Include species, trunk diameter, estimated height, crown width, and age, as well as any additional characteristics on which the nomination is based. • Digital picture.
• Justification. Using criteria required for approving a Heritage Tree, provide rationalization specific to the tree being nominated.
• Contact information. Provide name, address and telephone number of the applicant.

SELECTION
The Street Tree Committee shall consider nominations at their regularly scheduled public meeting. As determined by the Committee, an ISA Certified Arborist may also assist in the consideration of the nominated tree.

A notice regarding the consideration of the nomination shall be posted by the City Clerk and shall include posting in proximity to the nominated tree. The applicant/owner(s) of the property on which the tree is located, and contiguous property owners/residents within 75 feet of the nominated tree shall receive a notice of public meeting.

At the public meeting the Committee shall consider the nomination, including the comments forwarded by the Director of Public Services & Engineering and related public comments.

Any appeal of the Committee's determination may be submitted in writing to the Director of Public Services & Engineering, who will in turn, forward it to the City Council for final determination.

REVOCATION
A Heritage Tree may be removed from the Heritage Tree Program as described above under Heritage Tree Categories. Once removed by action of the Street Tree Committee and /or the City Council, all incentives provided to the private property owner shall cease.

APPROPrIaTE Vacant StreeT Tree PLANTING

SITE CRITERIA
The criteria to establish whether or not a potential planting site is an 'appropriate vacant street tree planting site' include the following:

1. The site shall not conflict with any traffic control or sight distance regulations.

The site shall not be closer than six feet from an existing driveway apron, water meter box, underground gas line, or sewer lateral.

3. The site shall allow for adequate spacing between trees, dependent upon species.

Typical spacing requirements are 30' between smaller canopy trees, 40' between larger canopy trees, and 25' between Palms. This area may be reduced depending on projected mature canopy growth of subject trees.

4. The site shall be irrigated, preferably by a permanently installed irrigation system, either originating on public property or on the abutting private property.

All sites on Caltrans' rights-of-way shall conform to the requirements of the California Department of Transportation Highway Design manual.

6. Tree sites falling within City-established view corridors will be restricted with respect to tree height, density, and species.

Tree sites under utility lines will be restricted as to species and proximity to power poles and guy wires.

8. See Appendix L for parkway location in regard to street tree plantings.

Property owners that have previously asked for a tree on Arbor Day and or have had a tree die due to lack of water, will be required to provide proof of a functioning irrigation system. A dedicated irrigation bubbler or tree drip ring will be required before any new tree planting(s) can be considered by City staff or Street Tree Committee members.

MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of the public urban forest is the responsibility of the City of Coronado's Department of Public Services. Pruning of trees is the primary maintenance practice. Only City crews or authorized companies and individuals who have obtained a permit from the Department of Public Services are allowed to prune City-owned trees.

SCHEDULE
The City's tree trimming contractor conducts yearly tree sweeps within City designated sectors in conjunction with the daily operations of City tree trimming staff. All sectors within the City are completed, at a minimum, once every six years. A 'tree sweep' is defined as the performance of a standardized pruning operation on all trees in a selected section within the City (see Tree Sector map, Map 1 on page 18).

PALMS
Aside from the scheduled trimming of canopy trees, the City contracts with an outside tree service company to perform annual trimming of Palms throughout the City. Currently 3,127 Palms are trimmed in the fall months of each year.

WORK ORDER PRIORITIZATION
Residents are free to call the Department of Public Services and request pruning of the City street trees fronting their property. A work order is generated which will give specific details of the request. Generally, canopy raising or thinning of the canopy is given a low priority rating. Low priority work orders are normally completed within six to eight weeks from the date of generation. Low branches over the street or sidewalk are usually designated as medium priority. Medium priority work orders are typically completed within one week.

Cracked branches or other hazardous conditions are given a high priority rating. High priority work orders are generally responded to within 24 hours.

ELECTRIC POWER LINE PRUNING
Trees under overhead electrical conductors within the City are clearance pruned by San Diego Gas and Electric (SDG&E). Trees growing under high voltage lines are routinely cut back to the required distance as determined by the Public Utilities Commission. In an effort to maintain safety through preventative measures, SDG&E offers tree planting tips as a guide to planting the "Right Tree in the Right Place." Trees are classified into three zones which are based on a mature tree's height level. "Red Zone" trees reach heights up to at least sixty (60) feet; "Yellow Zone" trees reach heights up to forty (40) feet, at most; and "Green Zone" trees reach heights no taller than twenty five (25) feet and must also extend to at least fifteen (15) feet away from electric lines. SDG&E also has a planting list that can be referred to when considering which tree(s) might be best for planting in an area with power lines. Planning ahead and following basic guidelines for tree planting around electric lines provides a safer Appendix G | 1
City of Coronado STREET TREE MASTER PLAN 2022
Attachment 2
environment for the community and creates a positive growing environment for trees, enabling them to naturally flourish while being properly maintained.

PRUNING CRITERIA
Reasons for pruning trees include the following:

1. A tree's threat to public safety and/or the likelihood of its causing property damage.

This would include removing lower branches to facilitate pedestrian movement along sidewalks and truck traffic on the adjacent street, as well as removal of dead or diseased branches.

2. The need for pruning to affect the structural integrity and promote the growth and health of the tree.

3. To improve the appearance of the tree.

Tree pruning is performed according to the International Society of Arboriculture (I.S.A.) pruning standards. A copy of the I.S.A. pruning standards is available for reference at the office of the Department of Public Services, Parks Supervisor.

WATERING
Watering of young trees to ensure their establishment and of older trees to provide moisture for continued growth and development is generally the responsibility of the adjacent property owner, as indicated in Coronado Municipal Code 52.32.120(d):

D. It shall be the responsibility of each property owner to provide adequate water to a public tree or palm planted adjacent to their property to ensure its proper establishment and ongoing health

PEST CONTROL & FRUIT SUPPRESSION
Any control measures taken to reduce insect pests or disease problems, or to suppress fruit production on public trees, shall be performed by a qualified (certified) applicator from the City or, if contracted by the City, by a Certified Pest Control Operator.

As an example, the City contracts with an outside pest control firm to spray the Olive trees on Olive Avenue in order to suppress fruit production. The level of control obtained varies from year to year depending upon winter rainfall, spring temperature and timing of the spraying.

SDG&E's Plantina List.

Planting Do's and Don'ts

1. Correct any soil drainage problems before planting.

2. Dig the hole as deep and two to three times as wide as the tree's root ball.

3. Plant the tree at the same depth it was grown in the nursery. Don't bury the portion of the trunk that meets the soil. Cut and remove any string, burlap, or wire from at least the top half of the root ball.

4. Don't add soil amendments to the backfill. Mulching the soil's surface is good, but don't put mulch against the trunk.

5. Water the tree thoroughly. Repeat every 7 to 10 days during dry periods for at least the first year. Don't fertilize at planting time. In fact, it's best not to fertilize for one year to encourage roots to grow into the soil.

6. Not all newly planted trees require staking. If you choose to stake your tree, insert the stakes into the soil outside the root ball. The ties should hold the trunk upright, but still allow it to move. You can remove the stakes as early as 90 days, but no later than 1 year after planting.

DON'T ALLOW YOUR TREES TO BE THE CAUSE OF FIRE, INJURY, OR DEATH! It's the Law!
State law requires utility companies to maintain specific clearances (depending on the voltage running through the line) between electric power lines and all vegetation.

CPUC General Order 95, Rule 35 - Requires SDG&E to maintain minimum clearances between vegetation and high voltage power lines. To minimize repeated trimming on a tree, utilities need to achieve at least one year of clearance. • Public Resource Code, Section 4293 - Requires SDG&E to maintain minimum clearances, for fire prevention purposes, for those areas under the responsibility of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Prevention. • Cal OSHA, Title 8, Article 37 - States that no person shall come within 6' to 16' of energized high voltage power lines, and that no boom type of lifting or hoisting equipment shall come within 10' to 20', depending on the voltage of the high voltage power lines. This also means there cannot be personnel or equipment in trees, such as Avocado or other fruit trees, six (6) feet or less from the high voltage power lines.

SDG&E CONTRACTORS WILL TRIM TREES ON YOUR PROPERTY THAT PRESENT A HAZARD TO POWER LINES, AT NO COST TO YOU!
