Hello Mayor Blakespear, After reviewing the location with the Streets Field Supervisor, it has been determined that these trees are on Caltrans property. We have a maintenance agreement with them to maintain the road but not the vegetation or trees on their right of way. We are concerned about allocating City resources for work on property other than City owned. We have a good working relationship with Caltrans and they have been responsive to our request in the past. Please contact the Streets Department at 760-633-2850 so we can discuss and receive further direction.

Trees are not City owned, also with the I-5 widening project, this intersection will be reworked.
