BACKGROUND: A request was received from Yvonne Francis of 15621 Pacific Street for the City to remove a large Brazilian Pepper tree in her parkway. Letters were distributed to the neighbors notifying them of the removal request. No objections were received. DISCUSSION: Mrs. Francis complains of the tree being very dirty with the blossoms for several months each year and that her 12 year old son is allergic to these blossoms and the pollen causing him difficulty in breathing. The boys doctor has recon~nended they try to get rid of this tree. The area was developed in the County and this type of tree was never approved for parkways in the City because of the blossom problem. Also, they have a very undesirable root system.
