City of Tukwila <br />Jim Haggerton, Mayor <br />Department of Community Development Jack Pace, Director <br />MEMORANDUM <br />DATE: October 19, 2012 <br />TO: Tukwila Tree and Environment Advisory Committee <br />FM: Carol Lumb, Senior Planner <br />Sandra Whiting, Urban Environmentalist <br />RE: November 1, 2012 Advisory Committee Meeting <br />Enclosed please find materials for our next Tukwila Tree and Environment Advisory Committee <br />meeting for your review: <br />• Agenda <br />• Revised Meeting Schedule <br />• Draft 9 -26 -12 Meeting Notes <br />• Ten Key Issues Identified by Staff <br />• TMC 11.20 Right -of -Way Vegetation Regulations <br />We will have two speakers at our next meeting. The first is Linden Mead, who is an Urban and <br />Community Forestry Specialist with the Washington State Department of Natural Resources, speaking <br />to us on the benefits of trees. She will be followed by Ian Scott, Project Developer with the Davey <br />Resource Group, who will present the initial results of the Draft Urban Tree Canopy Assessment. The <br />City was fortunate to receive a grant from the Department of Natural Resources to pay for the <br />preparation of the assessment. The information from the assessment will help guide establishing tree <br />canopy goals for different areas of the City. Receipt of the revised Draft Tukwila Urban Tree Canopy <br />Assessment from our consultant has been delayed until Wednesday, October 24th, so I will e-mail you a <br />copy as soon as it is received and then mail you a hard copy. That way, you can hopefully start <br />reviewing the electronic copy prior to receiving the paper copy in the mail. <br />At the September 26th meeting, the Committee discussed providing staff with a list of 5 -10 key issues. <br />These are due to staff by November 1st — it would be helpful to have these electronically if that is <br />possible. Staff has provided the Committee with its list in this Agenda packet. <br />We look forward to seeing you on November 1, 2012 — please call or e-mail if you have any questions in <br />the meantime. <br />Enclosures <br />cc: Nora Gierloff, Deputy Director, Department of Community Development <br />Kimberly Matej, Council Analyst <br />CPL Page 1 of 1 <br />W: \\Long Range Projects \Urban Forestry\Advisory Committee Materials\Memo 2 <br />06/10/2013 <br />6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone 206 - 431 -3670 • Fax: 206 -431 -3 <br />
