§ 8107-25.10.2. Tree offset standards.  


Latest version.
  • Offsets shall be based on the "cross-sectional" area of the affected portions of the subject tree. The required offset is achieved when the Planning Director deems the selected offsets from among the alternatives referenced in the Tree Protection Guidelines equals the cross-sectional area of the affected portions of the tree(s) in question. In determining the offset obligation, the ISA valuation of a subject tree shall be calculated in accordance with the most current edition of the ISA "Guide for Plant Appraisal" as it applies to central Southern California.
