TREE MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES AND POLICIES
FOR THE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF CITY PROPERTY
4 City of Ukiah Tree Management Guidelines
6.1 Tree Preservation: Tree preservation is arguably the single most important goal in
maintaining the Urban Forest. A replacement tree requires decades of growth to achieve
similar benefits of carbon sequestration, shade, habitat, and beauty. Additionally, there
are a limited number of available sites for trees to be planted. If a root ball needs to be
removed, the cost of replanting can he prohibitive. For all these reasons and more, every
tree should be treated as a precious resource with all efforts made toThe health and
physical state of trees shall be maintained and protected whenever possible. Instances
not specifically covered elsewhere in this policy include:
6.1.1 Conservation Identification of Landmark Trees: Landmark trees provide an
excellent opportunity to educate the public about the importance of trees in
general and the benefits and beauty of individual of trees. These are individual
trees thatTress receiving this designation are considered unique because of size,
species, historical significance and shall be given extra protections and
consideration for retention. Refer to the Glossary of Terms.
6.1.2 Existing Trees: Staff shall change use patterns in root zones whenever practical.
For example: Vehicles parked or materials stored in the root zone shall be
subject to an education and/or enforcement campaign to reverse the damage to
the tree roots; pathways causing excessive compaction around tree roots shall
be relocated if other options are deemed insufficient. Fencing, boulders, logs
and landscaping are reasonable deterrents to reduce further damage and shall
be used whenever practical. Refer to ISA BMP Integrated Vegetation
Management.
6.1.3 Special consideration shall be given for unique situations. Every effort shall be
made to protect trees growing near underground streams.
6.1.4 Storm water flooding and sedimentation of drainage areas shall be properly
considered before tree removal.
6.1.5 The relationship of vegetation to slope stability will be a primary consideration in
all proposed vegetation management on slopes.
6.1.6 Diseased or Infested Plants That Pose Risk to Trees: Action shall be taken to
effectively decrease risk to other trees from pests and diseases. This may
include removal and destruction of affected materials, pesticide treatments
and/or alternative cultural practices. Other qualified experts shall be consulted
as needed. Refer to ISA BMP Integrated Pest Management; City of Ukiah
Integrated Pest Management Plan.
6.1.7 Damage, Vandalism and Illegal Cutting: Action shall be taken whenever possible
to investigate and prosecute vandalism and illegal cutting of city-owned trees.
Compensation for damages shall be sought based on the appraised value in
accordance with The Guide for Plant Appraisal as authored by the Council of Tree
and Landscape Appraisers.
6.2 Planting: Planning before planting can ensure that the right tree is planted in the right
location. Proper tree selection and placement prevents tree damage and costly
maintenance like trimming. Consideration of water requirements and climate and
surrounding infrastructure such as sidewalks, sewer lines and overhead/underground
power lines shall improve the chances for optimum growth potential. Refer to the City of

TREE MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES AND POLICIES
FOR THE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF CITY PROPERTY
5 City of Ukiah Tree Management Guidelines
Ukiah’s Master Tree List; City of Ukiah Tree Planting and Maintenance Recommendations;
ISA BMP Tree Planting; and ISA BMPTree Support Systems.
6.3 Root Environment and Tree Root Zones: Refer to the Glossary of Terms. Whenever
feasible, a pro-active program of cultural practices shall be implemented to maintain the
health and vitality of City trees. Refer to ISA BMP Tree and Shrub Fertilization.
6.3.1 Trees in parks, fields and all other areas both developed and undeveloped:
6.3.1.1 Soil Compaction: Every effort shall be made to avoid the compaction of
soil in root zones and to encourage penetration of rainfall deep into the
soil.
6.3.1.2 Mulch: Organic material such as mulch and leaves shall not be removed
under the tree canopy.
6.3.1.3 Crews shall, when feasible and practical, establish and maintain the
areas under tree canopies free of turf and invasive plant species. The
use of native grasses and plants are encouraged, as are plants
associated with the trees above them. Special consideration shall be
given to oak trees and the use of drought tolerant plants near them.
6.3.1.4 Parking: Vehicles and equipment should be parked on paved areas,
streets and parking lots.
6.3.1.5 Pavement: The use of pavement within park and garden areas shall be
limited as much as possible, especially under tree canopies. Whenever
pavement is necessary the use of permeable materials is preferred.
6.3.1.6 Leaf Blowers: The use of leaf blowers is discouraged. Leaf blowers
should not be used to blow debris with native soil.
6.3.1.7 Pesticides: The use of pesticides is discouraged. Please refer to the City
Integrated Pest Management policy.
6.3.1.8 Stakes: In the unusual situation when stakes are needed they should be
driven in outside the root ball. ISA BMP Tree Support Systems shall be
followed.
6.4 Construction around Trees: Protection devices shall be installed to protect the tree
and root zones when near or within construction zones. The root system extends at
least to the edge of the canopy or drip line of the tree with most of the fine feeder roots
active in the top few inches of the soil. These roots need air to stay healthy in order to
provide the tree with nutrients and water. This root zone shall be protected from
compaction, changes in soil grade, digging, or other disturbances.
Protective fencing and warning signage will be required around the root zone. All tree
protection devices shall be visible, well-anchored, and approved in the field by the
Supervisor or designee prior to clearing, grading, or beginning of construction and shall
remain in place and maintained until the project is completed. Refer to ISA BMP
Managing Trees During Construction and ANSI Construction Management and Standard.

TREE MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES AND POLICIES
FOR THE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF CITY PROPERTY
6 City of Ukiah Tree Management Guidelines
6.5 Consultation with a Qualified Arboricultural Professional: When planning and
designing a public improvement project the City shall seek the appropriate qualified
expert when the project involves or is near a tree or trees.
6.6 Pruning Standards: The effects of Climate Change place an ever-increasing value on
shade. Therefore, pruning shall be performed with a minimum removal of plant matter.
The goal or of pruning shall be to preserve the maximum amount of shade while allowing
for the pruning goal.The latest pruning standards established by the International Society
of Arboriculture shall be used in the maintenance of trees and are detailed in the ISA
Best Maintenance Practice booklets. Refer to ISA BMP Tree Pruning; ISA BMP Utility
Pruning of Trees. Such maintenance will include:
6.6.1 General pruning for clearance to prevent injuries and to facilitate maintenance
and vehicle clearance.
6.6.2 Pruning dead, dying, and diseased sections to improve the health and
appearance of the tree and to prevent accidents.
6.6.3 Pruning for clearance around lighting and overhead lines.
6.6.4 Pruning back for authorized passage on service roads, walkways
and paths.
6.6.5 Pruning requested by a private property owner shall only occur with prior
approval of the Director of Community Services. Such requests do not obligate
the City of Ukiah to prune trees, shrubs, and/or vegetation and should only be
approved if there is an overriding and substantial benefit to the City
. Such requests do not obligate the Department to prune trees, shrubs, and/or
vegetation. It is the responsibility of the business owner to plan their signage so
that visibility is not affected by growing trees.
6.6.6 Pruning in park areas identified as places of illegal or inappropriate activity in
order to improve general visibility, safety, and increased police surveillance.
6.7 Birds and Nesting: Except in emergencies nesting birds or nests shall not be disturbed
or harassed by pruning or removal activities. To avoid nesting season, pruning,
trimming, and tree removal shall only such activities shall occur between
September 1st and March 31st unless a qualified biologist has assessed and
approved the acitvity. Fish and Game Code 3503: "It is unlawful to take, possess, or
needlessly destroy the nest or eggs of any bird..." The Migratory Birds Treaty Act of
1918 also applies.
6.8 Unnecessary Wounding: Prior to trimming the City Horticulturist will review tree
trimming plans and consider the health and timing of trimming to ensure the tree will not
be unnecessarily wounded. Because “topping” of trees can cause permanent damage by
promoting decay, as well as unnatural, dense and weak branching structure, topping
shall not be practiced or permitted except under special circumstances. Not only can a
tree sustain wounds to the branches or top, it can also sustain wounds to the trunk.
Therefore, these policies shall reinforce the protection of the trunk area from wounds
associated with a lawn mower or other equipment.

7 City of Ukiah Tree Management Guidelines
6.9 Hazardous Tree Management: Public health, safety and general welfare will be
maintained through the use of generally accepted professional practices of evaluation
and treatment to reduce risks to people and property from hazardous trees. Attention to
proper selection, planting and maintenance of new trees shall also be pursued to achieve
long-term risk reduction. Emergency corrective action can be undertaken without
horticulturist review. However, crews who remove or trim a tree under emergency
conditions shall notify and provide an after-action review to the horticulturist.
6.9.1 The City of Ukiah shall assess and manage the risk of tree failure within the
limits of available fiscal and human resources. Priority shall be given to locations
and situations with high probability of failure and high potential damage or injury
that may result.
6.9.2 Corrective action for high hazard rated trees shall be reasonable and prudent and
may include:
• Moving any at-risk structures, equipment, fixtures or recreational sites;
• Correction of the defect by pruning, cabling and bracing, or tree removal;
• Closure of the area
7.0 Tree Removal: The City shall provide 72 hours of advance notice of the intended tree
or trees that shall be removed by posting a sign at the work site when feasible. The sign
shall contain the reason for the removal of the tree and the appropriate city department’s
telephone number that the public may contact for further information. Tree removal will
include:
7.0.1 Trees that pose substantial risk or hazard to the public, adjacent properties or to
public facilities.
7.0.2 Dead, dying or diseased trees.
7.0.3 Removal from properties being improved or developed under an approved
design, however, prior consideration to retention shall be given whenever
possible. Preference is to retain existing healthy trees when designing any
development rather than attempting mitigation.
7.0.4 Trees that block trails, drains or otherwise obstruct the use and function of
infrastructure elements.
7.0.5 Trees on sites that were over planted by design or are crowded from natural
competition. As the landscape grows, the Supervisor with consultation with a
qualified expert shall selectively remove trees on a site to maintain spacing for
optimal tree growth and function.
7.0.6 Removal requested by a private property owner shall only occur with prior
written approval of the Director of Community .Services. However, sSuch
requests do not obligate the City of Ukiah to remove or allow removal of any
trees, shrubs, and/or vegetation and should only be approved if there is an
overriding and substantial benefit to the City.

TREE MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES AND POLICIES
FOR THE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF CITY PROPERTY
8 City of Ukiah Tree Management Guidelines
7.0.7 Consideration shall be given for providing trunk and limbs for service projects
such as constructing benches and picnic tables. The use of wood chips for
mulching material around trees and vegetation in the parks is encouraged.
7.1 Tree Replacement: At least one tree shall be planted for every tree that is removed
from City property. Replacement tree species shall be selected so that overall mature
canopy volume will be maintained or increased. It is preferable to plant the replacement
tree in close proximity to the original tree’s location. The replacement tree may be
located elsewhere, if local conditions contributed to the previous tree’s failure (See
Section 6.2). New locations should be found on the same site or in the same
neighborhood at a location of similar or greater value. Preference shall be given for
planting native trees whenever feasible.
7.2 Replacement Plantings The City shall undertake the task of replacement plantings to
mitigate the effects of vegetation removal and to reestablish the landscape and increase
overall mature forest canopy. The City shall determine the species of tree to be planted
on City property and the planting location. Every effort shall be made to select a species
compatible with the existing tree plantings on the street, (the neighborhood identity), the
maturity of the trees, space available for growth, the presence of underground and
overhead utility lines, utility poles, streetlights, driveway approaches and fire hydrants.
7.3 Phasing: The City of Ukiah when appropriate shall consider a phased approach to
vegetation management to reduce potential short-term negative aesthetic and/or wildlife
habitat impacts (associated with such actions).
7.4 Wildlife and Habitat: Trees and forested areas are recognized as important habitat for
native wildlife and providing vital wildlife corridors. Trees, undeveloped landscapes and
creeks will be managed to optimize them for wildlife habitat. Refer to the City of Ukiah
Creeks Maintenance Policies and Procedures.
8.0 SUMMARY
These guidelines are set in place to enhance the urban forest within the City of Ukiah. As
industry standards change in regard to tree care, this document shall remain flexible to
incorporate needed changes.

Dear Ms. Horger,
Thank you for considering Miracle Playsystems for your playground replacement project at Todd Grove Park, we are excited about the opportunity
and look forward to working with you! We have included a proposal for the developmentally appropriate equipment specific to your play area along
with general information requested in your request for proposals. I have visited the site and been very busy compiling project details with our
team to ensure a smooth process.
My understanding of the work to be performed includes: providing all necessary labor, materials and equipment and incidentals to provide and
install new 5-12 age appropriate playground equipment in our Design Option #1 and 2-5 and 5-12 playground equipment in our Design Option #2,
including engineered wood chips for the base under the new equipment. Our price proposal will include complete site prep and installation as
well as demo and disposal of existing playground structure, complete install of new playground equipment, upgrade of existing path and ramp to
meet current ADA requirements. Our equipment proposed is the newest and latest models in current production.
Miracle Playsystems passion is to create inclusive, innovative and exciting playgrounds to enrich communities. Our dedicated team of sales,
design, and playground construction experts will help you through each phase of your project, ensuring the utmost quality, value, and outstanding
customer service. Our creative staff continually educates clients on the newest trends in playscape design and cost-effective ways to use
them. Designing compliant and exciting play spaces and providing exceptional customer service are always our primary concerns.
Miracle Playsystems commitment to our clients includes offering the right price on the most extensive selection of equipment that meets the
industry’s highest standards of safety, durability, structural integrity and accessibility around the world. We will be proposing a range of
products to help you make your playground accessible to children and caregivers of all abilities. Each playground is designed to welcome
everyone of different ages and abilities and supports the following five fundamentals:
1. Provide multi-sensory play experiences
2. Encourage all children to play together
3. Allow greater accessibility
4. Ensure kids do not get overwhelmed
5. Create welcoming social environments
Each piece of equipment is carefully designed for safety and undergoes rigorous testing to ensure that it meets the highest standards. Our
commitment to providing a safe, positive environment for children to play begins with meeting and/or exceeding safety performance
specifications established by organizations and regulatory bodies such as: ASTM, CPSC, CPSIA, IPEMA, CSA, EN. We not only comply with these
standards and guidelines, but we also actively participate with ASTM and CPSC in their development and are active members of IPEMA.
This proposal package including quote for product and services is a firm, irrevocable offer which is good for 90 days from the date of quote.
If you have any questions regarding this proposal and accompanying information, please contact me at 510.514.5212 or
shana@miracleplaygroup.com.
Thank you,
Shana Friesen

Anti-Microbial Coatings
Problem:
Transmission of Communicable Diseases
As in all public areas, playgrounds can be a place where children
transfer bacteria that may cause/carry communicable diseases. As
a leading playground equipment manufacturer, we're doing our part
to help defend kids against the spread of germs and the risk of
disease transmission.
Solution:
Mira-Cote by Miracle Anti-Microbial Coatings for posts, rails,
climbers and swing frames contain a compound that inhibits the
growth of bacteria that may cause diseases. These coatings cover
gripping points on play structures - places where kids hands touch
most frequently.
Our proprietary anti-microbial treatment helps protect your children
and your playground from bacteria and the wide range of problems
that germs can create.
Features & Benefits
Minimizes growth of bacteria, fungus and algae on equipment surfaces
Helps reduce odors and stains on play components
Works to make playground surfaces and equipment resistant to mold and mildew
Assists in keeping playgrounds looking attractive
Ten color choices (see below)

Scope of Work
Todd Grove Park is located in the heart of Ukiah on Live Oak Avenue. The park has a little something for
everyone in the community. The expansive 16 acre park has playgrounds, volleyball, horseshoe pits,
amphitheater, shaded areas, picnic areas and barbecues. The community pool which offers swim classes,
pool rental, and public swim sessions is across the way from the playground. The park is a hub for many
community events such as "Sunday's in the Park", movie nights, community yard sales, and many
gathering with friends and families enjoying a lazy afternoon at the park for birthday parties and other
celebrations. Todd Grove Park is a definite Ukiah Gem!
The current playstructures are starting to show their age. The HAGS wooden structures have held up thru
the years but we understand the maintenance issues with an all-wooden structure. The maintenance
department mentioned how hard it is to clean up graffiti and find that people carve stuff into the wood as
well. It is also hard to make repairs as the structure is outdated. Overall while the structure has held up
for the last 15+ years, it needs a modern, low maintenance, new and exciting structure upgrade that is
able to withstand the high traffic this park attracts while lasting for many years to come. We are
proposing 2 options.
Project Understanding
Page 93 of 148
44
Option #1 we propose to replace the 5-12 structure with a new, innovative, massively huge structure with lots
of slides and climbing elements to excite and entice the children of the community. This 5-12 Mega Tower
structure from Miracle Recreation encompasses the 5 elements of play in the design. There are multi-sensory
play elements such as 5 slides that encourage vestibular (movement and balance), climbing elements such as
the Isotope climber which encourages proprioceptive (body position) movement, a bell which engages the sense
of auditory. The graduated range of challenging play from lower slides and climbers to high, massive slides
provides a way for all children to play together. The ADA steps and transfer points on multiple areas of the
equipment offer accessibility for children with limited mobility. There is opportunity for calm with quiet cozy
spaces hidden below the decks of the structure. Lastly, the entire playstructure encourages socialization with
play. There are areas for solitary, onlooker, parallel, associative and cooperative play. The look of the structure
is simple, modern and the colors complement the surrounding landscape of clusters of trees, open spaces and
nature.
Scope of Work
Todd Grove Park - Option #1
Page 94 of 148
45
The scope of services for Option #1 shall include tasks described below:
SCOPE OF WORK: The scope of work is to include all necessary labor, materials and equipment and incidentals to provide and
install new playground equipment, including border and engineered wood chips for the base.
•Project Location: The proposed project is to be located in the existing playground area on the eastern edge of the park
along Live Oak Avenue. The project will consist of removing an existing play structure that has aged and is unrepairable.
The replacement structure will be placed in the same location of the existing, with approximately the same footprint.
The new equipment will be age appropriate for children 5-12 years of age. Also included in the project is an upgrade to
the existing path and ramp into the playbox to meet current ADA standards.
•Project Guidelines: The project will meet current U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and American
Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) guidelines and standards as set forth in the most current Handbook for Public
Playground Safety. Configuration of and equal access to all apparatus and areas will comply with the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements for public agencies. The project will also meet all American National Standards
Institute (ANSI), UL, and Federal requirements/guidelines.
•Product Materials: All equipment is to be constructed primarily of metal, plastic, treated/composite wood product, or
other suitable material which has been pre-approved by the City. Slide bedways are to be constructed of plastic or
composite. The playstructure proposed is comprised of recycled materials. Miracle Recreation is an environmentally
conscious company continuously working to improve our processes. Miracle Recreation is certified as compliant with
the ISO 14001:2015 standard by our registrar Intertek.
•Site Conditions: Site conditions may include drain inlets/lines, irrigation lines, utility lines, tree roots and/or other
obstacles. In no case will the footings be drilled within six (6) feet of any mature trees. Tree canopies or other
obstacles will be considered when planning equipment layouts. It is our responsibility to confirm dimensions, locate
trees, and ascertain other pertinent conditions. It is our responsibility for all utility identification of the site. We will be
responsible for ensuring safety and the security of the site and all equipment and materials during installation. We will
provide construction fencing, signage, and any other measures to ensure safety/security.
•All services shall be provided in accordance with the City's draft agreement.
•Demolition and disposal of existing 5-12 playground structure, bollard on inside of gate and old ADA ramp
•Remove and redistribute EWF under new construction to the other parts of the playbox to fill box
•Complete installation of new 5-12 playground equipment
•Equipment will be newest and latest model in current production
•Upgrade existing path and ADA ramp into playbox to meet current ADA requirements. Concrete path shall be the same
width as existing path to end at outside (eastern) edge of the historic rock gate. The path should be at a level that
allows the gate to swing closed and should be flush with existing asphalt.
•Install and spread new EWF under new playground structure
•Once project is complete, we will provide a written guarantee, parts list, recommended maintenance schedule,
installation manual and specifications, documentation of compliance with CPSC, ASTM, and ADA guidelines, warranty and
two sets of any specialized assembly and/or maintenance tools for all equipment.

Option #2 we propose to replace the 2-5 and 5-12 structure with two new, innovative structures that
complement each other and the environment. The 2-5 structure and 5-12 Mega Tower structure from Miracle
Recreation encompasses the 5 elements of play in the design. There are multi-sensory play elements such as 3
slides on the 5-12 and 3 slides on the 2-5 that encourage vestibular (movement and balance), climbing elements
such as the Tarantula climber and Loopz 3 Ring climber on the 5-12 and the Tot Rock Climber on the 2-5 which all
encourage proprioceptive (body position) movement, a bell and music panel which engages the sense of auditory.
The graduated range of challenging play from the lower typhoon slide and higher Chameleon slides and a large
range of climbers provides a way for all children to play together. The ADA steps and transfer points on multiple
areas of the equipment offer accessibility for children with limited mobility. There is opportunity for calm with
quiet cozy spaces hidden below the decks of the structure. Lastly, the entire playstructure encourages
socialization with play. There are areas for solitary, onlooker, parallel, associative and cooperative play. The look
of the structure is simple, modern and the colors complement the surrounding landscape of clusters of trees,
open spaces and nature.

MIRACLE RECREATION EQUIPMENT COMPANY BRINGS YOU THE THRILLS OF A LIFETIME!
Miracle is one of the nation’s first and most innovative
playground equipment manufacturers. We first began
shaping the future of play in 1927 when our founder Johnnie
Ahrens created the Whirl — a tilting, kid- powered merry-
go-round — based on the timeless insight that, “Kids want
action.” That same inspiration has driven 90+ years of
innovation, including the introductions of the first
fiberglass slide (1963), the 25- foot Mega Tower®
(2000s), and the Avalanche Inclusive Slide (2015). Our
latest advance, the Extreme Generation adventure
playground, delivers challenging physical events for kids
seeking extreme play. Its design brings play to new heights,
with innovative, fully-enclosed skyways that provide
elaborate rope-course-inspired activities far above ground,
safely adding an element of perceived risk to any play space.
This never-ending dedication to innovation is the reason
why, even after more than 90+ years, the Miracle legacy
remains focused on building yours. We believe the
experience of building a playground should be as intuitive as
playing on it. From design, specification, funding,
purchasing and installation, we’ll be with you every step of
the way. Our customized design process is free because
there should never be a charge to dream.
Let’s get you started by envisioning a playground that is
meant for your community and right for your budget. It’s
why our legacy has always been about building yours.

Beamer Park, Woodland
This City of Woodland wanted to revamp this community park which sits in the heart of this charming small town. The park
is surrounded by other amenities which are very well used by the community such as a tennis court and city pool. Updating
this park was a welcome addition to this central gathering spot for the community. The look of the park is modern and fun
with the stone grey colors mixed in with tan and brown, it looks different than any other park in the community. The park
features lots of cool elements for kids to have fun with including a Gravity Cube and Wavy Wedge Wall Walker for climbing
fun, Pirouette to hop and jump on and Concerto Vibes musical instrument so children can make their own music. There are
two playstructures so children of all ages can play together. The toddler playstructure has lots of fun activities like a 360
degree Typhoon slide and tot rock climber. The older kids playstructure has multi-level decks, a 855 degree Typhoon slide,
2 other slides, 270 degree Try Rings, Fossil Bluff Climber and Dome Climber.

McConnell Park, Elk Grove
This 6.6-acre park was originally built in 1995 in the Hampton Village neighborhood of Elk Grove. The revitalization project
was made possible by the residents of Hampton Village who voted to increase their annual assessments to fund both the
construction and maintenance of the new facilities. The renovated park has something for everyone to enjoy! The
playgrounds were renovated with separate areas for 2-5 and 5-12 year olds with customized Miracle play structures with
bright, fun colors. The outdoor musical space is a place where people of all ages and abilities can collaborate in creative
ways. The Concerto line of instruments from Miracle Recreation will nurture discovery and bring joy to children, families
and communities. Adults and children can also come together and work out on the Miracle Recreation Fitness Equipment
which is installed around the playground. Wabash benches are placed around the play structures, so parents can relax and
have a great view of their children playing happily on the new playground. This playground needed an update and we think it
came together perfectly!
