We recently completed work on Adams Street. <br /> Section C -5 of the Intragovermental Agreement on tree trimming activities, entered into by <br /> EWEB and the City of Eugene, states that "When, during the course of performing maintenance <br /> pruning, EWEB discovers trees with excessive decay or other severe problems which suggest the <br /> tree poses a significant threat to life or property damage, such tree will be immediately reported <br /> to the City for evaluation and possible removal " <br /> EWEB has identified 25 trees on Adams Street between 3rd and 6th Streets that have excessive <br /> decay or other problems that indicate these trees may pose a significant threat to life and/or <br /> property. Attached to this letter is a more precise description of the location of these trees. <br /> EWEB recognizes the importance of these trees to the Whiteaker neighborhood and the residents <br /> who live on Adams Street, and is sensitive to the fact that any remedial action may have a <br /> detrimental effect on the character of the neighborhood. EWEB would be interested in <br /> discussing with you our participation in mitigating possible impacts to the neighborhood. <br /> Please call me at 684 -4750, at your convenience, if you have any questions or would like to <br /> discuss the issue further. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> &4(-CO f <br /> Brad Edwards <br /> Tree Trimming Coordinator <br /> Attachment <br /> cc: Johnny Medlin, City of Eugene Public Works/Maintenance <br /> Attachment <br />
