State law requires defensible space within 100 feet of a structure. We are at extreme risk of catastrophic wildfires. Why would the Town want to make it
more difficult to remove trees? Eliminate the red tape and make it easy to do defensible space work. At my personal residence in Glenshire, I can't get
regular fire insurance because there are too many trees. If the Town implements regulations to review all tree removal, it will discourage defensible space
work. We already have 3 layers of review for tree removal (Town, HOA, fire department). Why do we need yet another layer of review? This entire action
item should be eliminated from the general plan. In fact, the Town should encourage more tree removal to mitigate wildfire risk.
