Document Description
The Aleppo Pine Tree Removal and Replacement Project (Project) would remove and replace approximately 122 Aleppo Pine trees in the City of Burbank that have been found to be at risk as a result of the Arborist Reports (Arborist Report prepared by RPW Services, Inc. on September 13, 2023 and Addendum to the Level 2 Risk Assessment 47 Aleppo Pines and 1 Italian Stone Pine prepared by WCA on January 29, 2024 and Addendum to the Level 2 Risk Assessment) analysis of the trees’ health and risk of catastrophic failure. The Project would involve the removal and replacement of these trees ranging from removal within one to five years. Additionally, 49 Aleppo Pine trees and one Italian Stone Pine were already removed on an emergency basis in late 2023 and early 2024, and one Aleppo Pine tree failed during windy conditions in March 2024.
