Heritage tree removal at Edgewater Isle

San Mateo

Summary

The Edgewater Isle Master Association appealed the former Parks Director's denial of a permit to remove twelve heritage cottonwood trees at 1950 Vista Del Mar. The hearing would decide whether those mature protected trees come down — a question of property needs versus preserving the city's heritage tree canopy.
