So when you look under ordinance 15 section 25-27.7(c), subsection 1C -- 1B, it says: 16 "To the greatest extent possible, 17 specimen trees and other large trees that 18 would be," with a paren, "ten-inch DBH and 19 greater, shall be preserved." 20 Do you believe that the plan achieves 21 that requirement? 22 A. Not to the greatest extent possible. I 23 mean, they are saving some -- some large trees, but 24 they're not -- the largest and most desirable trees 25 on the site are proposed for removal.
