EXTERNAL
Dear Mayor Brock and Esteemed Councilmembers:
I SUPPORT this item in concept and I thank you, Mayor Brock, for adding it to tomorrow night's agenda as a 16. Item.
Nearby cities like Pasadena and Los Angeles have tree ordinances that may be worth scrutinizing as Santa Monica considers a new regulation.
Thank you for understanding the importance of Santa Monica's Urban Forest and our tree canopy - it's a priceless partner in our efforts to mitigate climate change and to shade and cool our city as it densifies.
Sincerely,
Ann Bowman
Resident, 28 years
