Ivy Way trees will stay
By ERIC A. HOWALD
Of the Keizertimes
The Keizer City Council
will allow two giant sequoia
trees that have gobbled up
a portion of a sidewalk to
stand.
Councilors held a public
hearing on the matter Mon-
day, Dec. 7, and determined
that the sidewalk along Ivy
Way Northeast, which is in-
complete, will be removed
instead of the trees. There
is a completed sidewalk on
the opposite side of Ivy Way.
Typically, when a tree begins
to encroach on a public side-
walk, the city works with res-
idents to have them removed,
said Keizer Public Works Di-
rector Bill Lawyer. Property
owners are then responsible
for repairing the sidewalk.
The sequoias had several
neighbors who spoke in their
defense via written testimony.
“The trees themselves are
inspiring to look at and have
provided habitat for birds and
small animals that live in this
area,” wrote Barbara Hunt-
er. “Why would we sacri-
fi ce two magnifi cent trees
to repair a small portion of
the sidewalk that leads no-
where?”
Don and Marsha Kaehler
echoed some of the same
sentiments.
“If a qualifi ed arborist has
determined that the trees are
a danger to the surrounding
area that would be a different
issue,” the couple wrote.
Lawyer said, to his sur-
prise, the trees did not seem
to be suffering as they com-
peted for space with a con-
crete sidewalk.

pay for removal, but proper-
ty owners are responsible for

“One of the trees swal-
lowed up the curb but they

said.

rupt the street pavement, the
