WESTWOOD SHADE TREE COMMITTEE APPROVED MINUTES TUESDAY, JUNE 20, 2023 1. CALL MEETING TO ORDER: The meeting was called to order by the chairman at 7:01pm. 2. MEMBERS PRESENT: Dan Zambrano, Fred Rella, Terence Beutel, Michael Murtaugh, Beth Staples, Councilwoman Erin Collins. Absent: Christine Blaney 3. APPROVAL OF PAST MINUTES: The minutes of May 9, 2023 were approved as corrected. 4. NEW MEMBER INTRODUCTION: New member, Terence Beutel, was welcomed to the board and introduced himself. 5. EAGLE SCOUT UPDATE: Eagle Scout, Noah Perez, from BSA Troop 350 informed the chairman that he is continuing to work on getting his project approved and will inform us when he receives the final approval. 6. SPOTTED LANTERN FLY CIRCLE TRAP: Beth Staples attended NY State Invasive Management Webinar and noted that NY is deploying SLF traps. She also contacted a friend who is in charge of all of the NJ Department of Transportation roadside plantings in South Jersey to inquire about what NJ is doing. Her friend provided her with instructions on how to build and deploy traps available at: https://extension.psu.edu/how-to-build-a-spotted-lanternfly-circle-trap There was discussion of this being a possible project for local scouting groups and of spraying invested trees with a Dawn detergent mixture. Dan noted that milkweed can also kill SLF, and it was suggested that our town Green Team consider planting milkweed at our parks. 7. TREE REQUESTS: Eleven (11) new tree requests have been received since our May 9 meeting and twenty-eight (28) new trees were planted in the spring. Dan shared the updated spreadsheet. 8. TREE PRUNING AND REMOVAL EMAILS: Dan shared the May Tree Work spreadsheet from the DPW. The DPW removed a dead (new) town tree at 103 Mill St. This removal was not noted on the tree removal spreadsheet. Dan noted that the property is for sale. WWSTC will reach out to the new owners (sometime in August) to determine if they are interested having a new tree planted. The homeowner at 81 2nd Ave emailed on May 22, 2023 asking that a dead Ash tree on the side of their house be removed. Dan forwarded the information to the DPW and advised the homeowner to submit a form for a new tree request. The address was not on the May tree work spreadsheet so Dan will follow up. Homeowner at 42 Gladys Place emailed shade tree on May 29, 2023 stating that there is a dead tree on the corner of Glady’s Place and Hurbut Street close to the utility lines. PSE&G told the homeowner that it was a Borough tree. Information (with picture) was forwarded to DPW and tree was removed on May 31, 2023. Dan emailed DPW on June 9, 2023 requesting pruning of two spots of dead wood on a Maple tree at 80 Dogwood Court. No word yet from DPW as to when the pruning will be done. The homeowner at 28 Clinton Avenue emailed on June 12, 2023 requesting the pruning of dead wood on two (2) town trees. The request was forwarded to DPW. The homeowner followed up on June 16th, but no response yet from the DPW. The homeowner at 315 Lafayette Ave contacted WWSTC on June 15, 2023 regarding the tree at the corner of Lafayette Ave and West End Ave stating that it is overgrowing the power lines, and the homeowner is unable to prune it without causing significant impact on vehicle and sidewalk traffic. DPW inspected the tree and determined that it is on the homeowner’s property, is not a town tree and, therefore, is the homeowner’s responsibility. Homeowner also noted a cracked/lifting sidewalk block between 315 and 309 Lafayette Ave. The homeowner at 1 Sycamore Court emailed WWSTC and DPW on June 16, 2023 noting that the tree looks diseased with mushrooms/lesions and dead wood and including picture. The homeowner has requested a new shade tree via the online form. The homeowner at 106 Langner Place emailed WWSTC and DPW on June 19, 2023 stating the DPW did a site visit and noted two (2) dead trees in the wetlands to left side of house that the homeowner would like removed. One has fallen and is being held up by another. DPW is aware and had asked the homeowner to submit the request in writing. Beth shared three (3) photos on June 20, 2023 of a neighbor’s tree at 180 Lexington Ave: Beth Staples shared 3 photos of neighbor’s tree on 6/20/23 with a splitting trunk bark. There was discussion that the injury to the trunk could have been caused by a vehicular accident (although none was reported) or by freeze/thaw splitting. Beth had suggested to the homeowners that report they report the condition of the tree and request that the Arborist evaluate it. 9. WEBSITE: The new Borough website is live. It was agreed to check boxes for removing or pruning on our draft form. Dan will ask when the updated form can be uploaded to the new website. 10. OPEN FORUM: Resident Warren Saunders or 93 Westwood Boulevard asked to speak to the WWSTC about a townhouse proposal pending before the WW Zoning Board for the lot that is adjacent to his property. The filed plans call for clear cutting the more than thirty (30) mature trees on the 100’x127’ lot. The trees include thirty plus (30+) years old maples, elms, and oaks which are helping to retain the storm water which flows through this wet area into the neighboring properties. Mr. Saunders (and Bob Fusco, another resident of the area at 98 Westwood Boulevard who later joined Mr. Saunders) indicated that this lot is a wetlands area and has known drainage issues. The property is zoned as R-1, Residential. The applicant is seeking multiple variances to build a four (4) unit townhouse development (see attached documents submitted by Mr. Sanders). Mr. Saunders and Mr. Fusco were advised to attend the next Mayor and Council meeting as well as the July 10, 2023 Zoning Board meeting to speak on the issue. Members of the WWSTC were also encouraged to attend the Zoning Board meeting. 11. ARBORIST EVLUATION: The homeowner at 59 Emerson Road emailed the DPW on May 20, 2023 regarding town trees lifting the sidewalks on Passmore Street. The DPW inspected the property on May 16, 2023 and noted that all of the trees appeared to be healthy. Rick Woods, DPW Superintendent, then asked the WWSTC to look at the trees and the sidewalks and make a recommendation. Dan recommended that the Borough arborist, Liz Stewart, evaluate all four (4) trees and make a recommendation. She evaluated the trees on June 7, 2023 and issued her report (attached). She also advised Dan that we should check with DPW and code inspector for what the Borough will allow in terms of sidewalk solutions. She listed possible sidewalk remediation options in her report and noted to Dan that a good sidewalk company (such as Angel’s Contractors which is doing work in other towns) will lift the sidewalk, paint the roots, and work with the homeowner. Rick informed that homeowner that sidewalk repair is the homeowner’s responsibility. It was determined to send the homeowner a copy of the arborist’s report. Councilwoman Collins noted that Bergen County as an income-based program to assist with sidewalk repairs. 12. COLLABORATION OPPORTUNITY: WWSTC members were asked participate in the “One Book Westwood” program at the library, https://www.westwoodpubliclibrary.org/one-book-westwood.html, and read the Wishtree in preparation for an event on the front lawn of the library on Monday August 7th at 7pm. Children and parents are invited for a discussion about the book and to make wishes. WWSTC can partner with the library and talk to attendees about our wish for more tree requests. 13. COMMUNITY FORESTRY MANAGEMENT PLAN: Liz Stewart reviewed our Operations Plan and Community Forestry Management Plan. She noted that guidelines will be forthcoming this fall and will be requiring a street tree inventory. She is also on the NJ Shade Tree Federation Board and suggests revising our suggested tree list to conform with that Board’s recommendations. In particular, Maples are predicted to have a high failure rate due to warmer temperatures, lack of water, poor soil, and mild winters. She also suggested that we join the NJSTF quarterly zoom tree talks: https://www.njstf.org/ Dan will make use of the Borough’s Master Plan in completing the CFMP’s Community Overview section which calls for a brief summary of the municipality’s history, culture and community values as it relates to our community tree resource. We also must offer a best estimate of our existing tree resource, including species, condition, numbers, and any known problems. We will plan for a tree inventory in our Goals and Objectives section and hope to have it funded through a CSIP grant. We also must explain how this CFMP will link into the conservation or land use components of Master Plan and must provide copies of any tree ordinances or municipal land use law relating to the implementation of this CFMP. Finally, we must provide an explanation of how this CFMP fits with the municipal open space plan (ie. Green Acre properties). The budget portion will use the numbers from the Borough’s recently adopted 2023 budget. a. OTHER COMMITTEE ITEMS: Our arborist Liz Steward will be speaking at the fall NJUCF conference of sidewalks and trees. Councilwoman Collins reported that the Mayor and Council are continuing to meet to discuss sidewalk options. b. ADJOURNMENT: The meeting was adjourned at 8:19pm. Next Meeting: July 11th at 7pm Elizabeth Stewart, NJLTE #531 NJ Licensed Tree Expert 201-294-8438 6/6/23: Tree evaluation at 59 Emerson Rd, Westwood, NJ. Five trees located on Borough right-of-way along a corner property. There are lifted sidewalk slabs to varying degrees adjacent to each tree. There are no utilities adjacent to the trees. Photos on file. All five trees: Quercus palustris (pin oak), 22”-26” DBH, all mature trees with visible root flairs and no obvious defects or decay noted. The trunks are straight with no obvious concerning defects and no lifting or shifting of the ground noted. The crotch of the trees appear to be intact with no obvious issues seen from the ground. The crowns are all in varying degrees of good to fair overall health with some evidence of smaller deadwood. The trees have been well maintained. The trees seem to planted higher than ground level, causing the roots to grow higher than they would normally, and they are causing the sidewalks to lift and crack. Looking on Google Maps, these sidewalks have been raised, and in a similar condition since at least 2012. In all cases, prior to any actual work, the slabs of sidewalk should be lifted and the roots painted to visualize where major roots are and a better plan can be implemented. Sidewalks should be constructed with minimum damage to roots as possible. Options for this situation include curving the sidewalk around the trees giving more room for the tree roots. Any larger roots can have their soil removed underneath, filling this space with pea gravel. A heavier concrete slab, +/- reinforcement with rebar, is placed on top creating a situation where the roots will grow down into the space instead of up to the surface of the sidewalk. In all cases the goal is to create an environment that inhibits root growth, eliminating air and moisture by providing a solid 4-inchs of compacted gravel and a thicker concrete. Alternative sidewalk material can be considered adjacent to trees such as rubber sidewalks, pavers, bluestone, or if allowed, a compacted gravel (ADA compatible) directly in front of the trees and replacing concrete sidewalks as normal outside of the root area. Asphalt is more flexible than concrete and can be sprayed with epoxy colored to match a sidewalk. In some cases, I have seen towns allow low-pedestrian areas to completely remove sidewalks and replace the area with soil and sod. A sidewalk could then be placed in the future when the trees need to be removed. Cutting roots is a temporary solution and the roots will typically regrow under the sidewalk within 3-5 years of being cut. Pin oaks are more prone to the wind sail effect where they can be blown over in a storm if they do not have a stable root system and heavy root pruning is not recommended in this case. The trees are in fairly good condition and it is worth preserving them. Pin oaks are a tree that can live over 100 years, where sidewalks typically have a longevity of 15-25yrs, depending on the quality of the construction and material. It is worth consideration of alternative sidewalk repair methods in order to preserve the trees. pg 1 of 1 Trees on Emerson: Tree at corner Emerson & Passmore Curve sidewalks out up to the curb, eliminating the grassy area between the curb and sidewalk. The mailbox would need to be relocated. Trees on Passmore: Sidewalks can be constructed to go around the tree roots. Tree in second photo above - the tree roots and base of the tree are high. Sidewalk can be ramped/bridged over the largest root while lifting sunken edge of sidewalk/soil as indicated on the photo. In addition, or alternatively, the sidewalk could be constructed as mentioned above, leaving the large root between two small piece or concrete/pavers/gravel as indicated in the photo between 2 red lines. These smaller slabs/pavers/gravel can be replaced as needed when root grows. In addition to their benefits, trees are living and inherently pose a certain degree of hazard and risk from breakage, failure or other causes and conditions. Recommendations that are made by me are intended to minimize or reduce hazardous conditions that may be associated with trees. However, there can be no guarantee or certainty that efforts to correct unsafe conditions will prevent breakage or failure of a tree. Any recommendations made should reduce the risk of tree failure but they cannot eliminate such risk, especially in the event of a storm or any act of Nature. There can be no guarantee that all hazardous conditions will be detected. Common sense, experience, and professional judgment were used to create this report. I certify that to the best of my knowledge and belief that the statements contained in this report are true and correct and that the opinions, evaluations, and conclusions are limited only by the reported assumptions and limiting conditions. My analysis, opinions, and conclusions were developed, and this report was prepared in conformity with the TCIA A300 Best Management Practice Standards and they are my personal, unbiased professional analysis, opinions, and conclusions. I have no personal or prospective interest in the subject of this report and with respect to the parties involved, nor is my compensation contingent upon an outcome of the report. Respectfully submitted, Elizabeth Stewart, NJLTE #531 NJ Licensed Tree Expert pg 2 of 2 Elizabeth Stewart, NJLTE #531 NJ Licensed Tree Expert 201-294-8438 5/15/23: Tree evaluation at 45 Meadow Rd Westwood, NJ. Trees are located in a Borough owned Gritman Park adjacent to the property. Both trees are in a maintained natural setting, adjacent to the property fence at 45 Meadow Rd. There are no utilities or paving obstructions and both trees have a large area for their roots to grow. Photos on file. Tree 1 Tree 2 Tree 2 – minor surface roots Tree 1 on side of house: Quercus palustris (pin oak) 28” DBH, mature tree. There is a visible root flair with no obvious defects or decay noted. The trunk is straight, having a minor geotrophic lean towards the light, with no obvious defects and no lifting or shifting of the ground noted. There are signs of previous pruning of larger lateral branches with large semi-compartmentalized pruning cuts. The maintenance so far has been done well. The crotch of the tree seems to be intact with no obvious issues seen from the ground. The crown is in good overall health with some evidence of smaller deadwood. This tree is in overall good condition and is well maintained. Currently this tree could be pruned for deadwood. Tree 2 in back of house: Quercus palustris (pin oak) 30” DBH, mature tree. There is a visible root flair with no obvious defects or decay noted. There are a few small surface roots that could girdle the larger root flair – they can be removed if able. The trunk is straight with no obvious defects. There are signs of previous pruning of larger lateral branches numerous large compartmentalized pruning cuts. The maintenance so far has been done well. The crotch of the tree seems to be intact with no obvious issues seen from the ground. The crown is in good overall health. Both trees can be pruned for deadwood. For tree 2 behind the house, pruning the surface roots (photo above) would be helpful so they do not girdle the main root flair. Both trees are of a species that regularly sheds deadwood. They can be monitored regularly for maintenance needs as they have been. If a new fence is constructed it should give enough allowance for the trunks to grow at least another 2 feet and the fence construction should not interfere with their roots. These trees could be approximately 100yrs old each and are an asset to the area. In addition to their benefits, trees are living and inherently pose a certain degree of hazard and risk from breakage, failure or other causes and conditions. Recommendations that are made by me are intended to minimize or reduce hazardous conditions that may be associated with trees.
