I. Roll Call: Pam Adams, Richard Hefley, Russell Hill, Matt Miner, Jim Todd, Debbie Jahnke present,
Becci Kimball absent excused. Staff present include Steve King and Michael Todd
II. Approval of Agenda/Changes to Agenda: special meeting, no changes permitted
III. Approval of Minutes: approved by consensus
IV. Public Comment (3 minutes per person/agenda items only): Kathy Darrow spoke on behalf of
WNPS prairie management, regarding the thistles that have been pulled but need to be hauled
away.
V. Old Business (10 minutes)
A. Lawrence/Tyler improvement and tree planting update - Steve: No bids received on first try
as the package is too 'balanced' for a general contractor, Lawrence portion must be
completed by the end of the year so Tyler paving will be removed from the bid. Second bid
effort will be opened Thursday, farmers' market will stay on Tyler. Planters on Tyler are still
under discussion for layout. Lawrence plantings will be done in the current effort if bids are
received and accepted.
VI. New Business (60 min)
A. Overview of Comprehensive Plan retreat and studios - staff: 2.5 day event; staff also went
to the Nest and the food bank. Three scenarios were presented - A is compact with focus of
development where infrastructure exists, this scenario was not supported by participants. B
doubles down on what we currently have, having neighborhood centers we develop
around. Sewer is not yet available in one location - Hastings and Howard. C is what has
actually happened. It is the market development outcome; exclusive to those who have
resources to build. How is existing development accommodated in North Beach and Cook
Avenue, how did Seaview sewer line occur? LID? What are the arrows on C - does that risk
Cappy's Trails? Do we go Type A; good -enough 80:20, very few but high quality (gold
standard), or keep swimming (status quo)? Consensus here is for 'good -enough'. There are
only about 35(J properties that have multifamily units in town; market has changed so
perhaps one of the seven multifamily tax exemption locations will develop. Peace Hill (SW
of San Juan/F intersection) is under development review. It was noted that the property
NW of San Juan/F has substantial contamination issues from the earlier gas station sited
there. Land capacity anlysis is what we have called Open Space and Land Use and that
work will be a part of the Comprehensive Plan effort. City will start thinning out Lombardy
poplars on the Koh Tai side on Sims in areas that will open up room for the existing native
trees behind them. Board wants to re-establish trails volunteers.
B. Tree diaper experiment on Discovery and at dog park overview - Richard - New method for
mulching trees involves encapsulating polymers in fabric; evens out water access for our
unique environment and it has success in some very harsh environments. These have been
in use for about a decade. These work better and last longer when covered with mulch. The
larger version is about $30 per tree. Experiment underway with the trees planted at the
west end of the dog park - the pair of lindens and a pair of the birches. Richard applies
water at 9 gal./week to each tree through the dry season.
VII. Staff update — (20 min)
A. RCO grant proposal update - Michael - Presentation at RCO will be at the end of August, both
playgrounds will be accessible. With RCO approval they would be in the 2025 workplan.
B. Parks & facilities staff update - Michael - We celebrated the renaming of Seamus Sims skate
park, event was very well attended. City is advertising for crew chief position. Pool is now
reopened.
C. Chetzemoka Kitchen Shelter update - Michael - Demolition will occur in August, approved by
HPC, with a rebuild next summer.
D. Mountain View Dog Park upgrades progress - Michael - Giant tires have been installed, new
signs ordered with new rules. Tires are painted with 'dogs only' to indicate it is not a
children's play area.
E. Richard brought up problems with some street trees on Water Street, including several that
are growing into grates. Michael asked for more details after the meeting to follow up.
VII. Next Regularly Scheduled Meeting: August 27, 2024
Vill. Public Comment: Kathy Darrow invited the board and staff to a Sunday 'Saunter' through the
Camas Prairie to learn about native species, prairie habitat, and current challenges.
IX. Adjourn: 5:50pm
Future agenda items:
• Sims Way, Port side will report out August meeting
• Land Capacity Analysis effort as part of Comprehensive Plan process
• Master plan for future westside park
• Tree subcommittee update — final drafts of street tree, POS trees, understory lists

CAUTION: External Email
Hi Robin,
My name is Scott Doggett. I write the "Wild Neighbors" wildlife column that appears in The
Leader every two weeks. This week I'm writing about the tree of heaven. I've been told that
you are the person I should direct my few questions to. If I've been misled, please point me
in the right direction. As you are likely very busy, I ask onlyfor 10 minutes of your time to
answer these questions:
Is anything being done to rid Port Townsend of its trees from heaven? If so, please tell. If
nothing, please explain.
You might answer this question with the last one, but how significant do you or the city view
the problem?
I'm new to PT. I only yesterday noticed thickets of TOH on Water Street. How prolific are
these trees around town? Have they made their way into the forest?
The brown marmorated stink bug, Asiatic shot -hole borer and the spotted lanternfly love
the tree of heaven. Have any of the three insect species been identified in Port Townsend or
Jefferson County? If so, is anything being done to eradicate them?
Please call or respond to me in writing by 5 p.m. tomorrow (Tuesday). I'm writing to you at
10 a.m. Monday.
Respectfully,
Scott

Memorandum
To: Connie Reckord, MacLeod Reckord PLLC
Site: Sims Way, Port of Port Townsend Gateway Landscape
Re: Tree Selection and Soil Preparation

Soil Test Results
Tree Solutions Inc. was asked to provide recommendations for tree species that would be suitable for
growth in a streetside landscape along Sims Way and the Port of Port Townsend boatyard. There are
currently large stature Lombardy poplar trees (all planned for removal) growing in the landscape that
are in decline with developing decays, a history of crown part failures, and root conflicts with
surrounding infrastructure. The soils in the landscape are compacted and of poor quality consisting of
dredge and fill materials with high levels of metals like copper and zinc.
The Project Proponent gained approval from City Council, Port Commission, and PUD to implement a
project that includes a redevelopment of the landscape — removing the declining Lombardy poplars and
replacing them with new tree and shrub species.
Tree Selection
Tree Solutions Inc. (TSI) was provided with a list of desired plant attributes, a table of trees from the
stakeholder group which included recommendations from a previous arboricultural consultant, emails
from stakeholders, and two city tree lists. The two city tree lists were comprised of an existing tree list
and one that the City Parks, Recreation, Trees, and Advisory Board is in the process of developing. Both
city lists were provided for reference in case any species were missed during the stakeholder process.
TSI has evaluated over 200 tree species for this landscape. We created a table to compare the desired
attributes and site conditions. We focused on trees; shrub species evaluation was not included in our
scope of work.
The tree species chosen must be able to tolerate the site conditions — including poor soils, drought
conditions, and full sun (once the poplars are removed) in addition to meeting a list of desired
i u, i1,'e Soi l'n�c: r� s,llIi et
hha�caeB:aili '`vkn„ Wn v G:Atlovva'',1 A�iugR,Nst 1?1.,,, 101r1,.
characteristics that both meet the needs of the Port and the surrounding community. We first
eliminated species that would not be suitable for the site conditions then evaluated the desired
characteristics. The table is color coded — trees with green fill would be good options, trees with yellow
fill may be good options if thoughtfully located, and trees with white fill would not be good options.
The Port of Port Townsend provided a list of parameters for vegetation that would not adversely impact
infrastructure and operations of the boatyard. The City Community Stakeholder group provided
additional criteria addressing survivability, aesthetics, and evolving policies. The combined list below
represents a consensus of desired attributes for the plants that include:
• No / low pollen
• Minimal debris (leaves, fruit, branches)
• No black or blue fruit
• No aggressive roots or suckering roots
• Native plants, preference of some
• No species that attract birds
• Columnar form to mimic form of existing Lombardy poplars
• Parkway landscape setting
• Views into the boatyard
• Drought tolerance
• Climate change resilience
• Marketplace availability
This list of characteristics restricts the number of plant species that can be planted. In addition, there are
very few large tree species that meet the desired characteristics which limits the ability to replace the
aesthetic and benefits that the Lombardy poplars currently provide. Some characteristics are in direct
conflict with one another — for example the use of native plants (desired) would attract birds (not
desired).
The Port of Port Townsend is primarily concerned about trees that could interfere with existing
infrastructure and marine trade activities the way that the Lombardy poplar trees have. The Port
performs a lot of boat maintenance including refinishing and painting between the months of February
and July. Wind -dispersed pollen, production of debris, attraction of birds, and aggressive roots are all
concerns. Based on public comment and community stakeholder feedback, native plants or cultivars of
native plants, and a landscape that evokes the form and look of a natural parkway planting is desired.
Unfortunately, these characteristics are to some degree at odds.
Most plants produce pollen unless they are female (certain species have separate male and female
plants) or if they have been bred or genetically altered to be sterile. Eliminating pollen altogether would
limit the qualifying species. However, plants that are pollinated by insects rather than wind could be
chosen as long as they meet the site conditions and other desired characteristics. Wind pollinated
species that would not be suitable for use would include all conifers and most hardwoods including oak,
elm, beech, maple, birch, sycamore, alder, walnut, sweetgum, hornbeam, hazelnut, and zelkova.

u� a eB:aili '`vkn„ Olny G:)ttlovva,,1 1%�iugR,Nst 1?1.,,, 101r1,.
All coniferous trees are wind pollinated and therefore would create a source of pollen that may impact
the boatyard. Dwarf or small coniferous trees like Serbian spruce and Hinoki cypress that produce less
pollen due to their size could be considered along the active portion of the boatyard. A few larger
specimens like Douglas -fir and incense cedar could be considered at the west end of the boatyard on the
sloping landscape adjacent to the demolition area or at the east end near the gas station and building.
Trees that are insect pollinated include dogwood, tulip tree, magnolia, linden, hawthorn, horse
chestnut, catalpa, and black locust. Dogwoods would provide a small to medium tree for the landscape,
both Eddie's White Wonder, a hybrid and cultivar of eastern dogwood and pacific dogwood, as well as
Korean dogwood are good candidates for the landscape. Tulip tree is a large stature tree that comes in
various cultivars including a narrow one that would mimic the old landscape, however they have
extensive root systems. Soil preparation to provide adequate soil depth and volume as well as installing
root barriers near vulnerable infrastructure could help to prevent root infrastructure and surface
interactions.
Evergreen magnolia and Kobus magnolia are both insect pollinated species from the city tree list that
would be suitable for this landscape. Douglas hawthorn, a small native tree would be suitable but would
likely attract birds. Linden trees are drought tolerant and insect pollinated, however, they drop a lot of
flowers and nut like fruit. Horse chestnut, non-native hawthorn, catalpa, and black locust all show
invasive tendencies or structural characteristics that would not be suitable for the landscape.
Female trees, fringe tree, ginkgo, and ash are all dioecious meaning that they produce male and female
flowers on different plants. However, fringe tree produces black berries, ash is susceptible to a serious
pest called emerald ash borer, and female ginkgos produce a putrid fruit that has an off-putting odor.
Hardwood trees that have been bred to reduce or eliminate pollen include cultivars of red maple,
Freeman maple, and black tupelo. The cultivars of red maple and Freeman maple would be suitable for
this landscape. The production of pollen and seed should be confirmed with the nursery at the time of
purchase to ensure they are sterile.
Overall, to meet the desired characteristics and site conditions, suitable trees from the lists include:
female or sterile cultivars of maple and elm, dogwood, goldenrain tree, tulip tree, magnolia, stewartia,
linden, crabapple, wax myrtle, and rhododendron.
It is important to note that Kah Tai Lagoon Nature Park is directly north of the streetscape where many
native plant species and Lombardy poplars are growing. This will be an ongoing source of pollen and
wildlife to the boatyard, in addition to fruit which could be consumed by birds and deposited in the
boatyard area.
Soil
Tree Solutions Inc. collected three soil samples from the main part of the landscape between the gas
station and Haines Place in approximately even sections. We took several samples north of the
Lombardy poplars in each section to produce a 3-4 pound sample. We sent the samples to A&L Western
Laboratories for nutrient and heavy metals analysis.
Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, the three main macronutrients important to plants, were found
to be in very low to low quantities in the tests, the potassium level was medium in two of the tests. The
� 1 ',o �� n C: 11 8 n II'"8 ',„ I d � q, V l n�"u ;" u l R u u �:^5 I u ge 3
eBail i '`vkn„ Wn y G:Atl ovva,,1 1%�iugR,Nst 1? 1.,,, 101r1,.
magnesium, iron, zinc, and copper levels were all found to be high or very high. Deficiencies and
toxicities of these nutrients can cause problems with plant growth, development, and vigor. Symptoms
often appear as reduced growth, lack of vigor, stunting, chlorosis (yellowing), and bronzing and off-color
foliage.
The pH of the soil was low (acidic). Acidic soil can limit the availability of nutrients to plants and in some
cases make some nutrients like copper and zinc available at toxic levels.
During sampling we found the soil to be very compacted and difficult to dig beyond a depth of 4 to 6
inches. Compaction affects drainage, the available space for root growth, and a plant's access to
available water and oxygen. It can also cause the formation of surface structural roots which interfere
with infrastructure.
Correction of deficient nutrient levels, soil compaction, and maintaining a pH of 6.5 or greater can make
magnesium, iron, zinc, and copper less available at toxic levels and provide plants with greater access to
nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. We recommend following the guidance outlined in the soil test
results for correcting the nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium levels as well as adding lime to increase
the pH. Consult with the lab to determine if the recommended amount of lime will achieve a pH of at
least 6.5.
We also recommend decompacting the soil to a depth of two to three feet which is the depth at which
roots typically grow in this region. This will provide plants adequate access to air and water and provide
a larger area for root growth which can prevent destructive surface roots from forming as has been
experienced in this landscape. Decompaction is typically done by ripping, tilling, or turning the soil with
an excavation machine.
In addition to decompaction, soil turning / deep tillage can help to redistribute nutrients that are
present in the upper soil profile in high levels. Prior to this work, we recommend taking soil samples
from lower in the soil profile, 2-3 feet down, to determine if similar high levels of nutrients exist at these
profiles. If they do not, deep tillage could redistribute the high copper, zinc, and iron levels reducing
their concentration in the upper soil profile.
Once the soil is decompacted we recommend mixing 3 inches of compost into the top 12 inches of the
soil profile. Compost provides improves pore space, improves water drainage and retention, and slowly
provides nutrients to plants as it breaks down.
Once the landscape plants are installed, we recommend applying and maintaining a layer of arborist
wood chip mulch over the soil surface to a depth of 3 inches. Wood chip mulch prevents water
evaporation, cools soil, prevents compaction from foot traffic, prevents weed germination, and
introduces nutrients to the soil over the long term as the mulch breaks down.
Recommendations in this memorandum do not take into account any action the Port of Port Townsend
may take to address content or quantity of metals in the soil.
