<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> i. No more than twenty five (25) percent of the live wood may be removed from the crown <br /> of any tree, without approval of an authorized SAPRF representative, excepting live oaks, <br /> which are limited to no more than ten (10) percent. Resulting in keeping as much of the <br /> crown of the tree as possible. <br /> j. Any extraneous metal, wire, rubber or other material (i.e. stakes, ties) interfering with tree <br /> growth shall be removed immediately. <br /> <br /> k. Any defective or weakened trees shall be reported to an authorized SAPRF representative. <br /> Specifically, any structural weakness of a tree, decayed trunk or branches, shall be <br /> reported in writing, noting the location of the tree by street address and a description of the <br /> hazard found in the tree. <br /> <br /> 1. The use of climbing spurs or spike shoes in the act of pruning trees is prohibited, except <br /> palms that are more than sixty-five (65) feet in height. <br /> <br /> in. Beneficial animal, bird nests, nesting cavities or other wildlife habitat shall be preserved <br /> and protected whenever feasible, unless doing so would create a hazard. <br /> <br /> 1.05 COMPLETE TREE PRUNING SPECIFICATIONS <br /> Complete tree pruning shall consist of the total removal of dead or living branches that may <br /> threaten the future health, strength and attractiveness of trees. Specifically, trees shall be <br /> pruned in such a manner as to: <br /> <br /> a. Prevent branch and foliage interference with requirements of safe public passage. Over <br /> street clearance shall be kept to a minimum of sixteen (16) feet above the paved surface of <br /> the street, fifteen (15) feet above the curb and eight (8) feet above the surface of a public <br /> sidewalk or pedestrian way. Exceptions are allowed for young trees, which would be <br /> irreparably damaged by such pruning action. <br /> <br /> b. Remove all dead and dying branches and branch stubs that are one half (1/2) inch diameter <br /> or larger. <br /> <br /> c. Remove all broken or loose branches. <br /> <br /> d. Remove any live branches, which interfere with the tree's structural strength, and healthful <br /> development, which will include the following: <br /> <br /> 1) Branches of weak structure, which are not important to the framework of the tree. <br /> 2) Branches, which if allowed to grow, would wedge apart the junction of more <br /> important branches. <br /> 3) Branches forming multiple leaders in a single leader type tree. <br /> 4) Branches near the end of a limb, which will produce more weight or offer more <br /> resistance to wind than the limbs are likely to support. <br /> 5) Selective removal of undesirable sucker and sprout growth paying specific attention <br /> not to nick or damage the sprout "burl". <br /> 6) Selective removal of one or more developing leaders where multiple branch growth <br /> exists near the end of broken or stubbed limbs. <br /> <br /> 43 <br /> 25H-55 <br />
