Body
The City of Madison Parks Division has received a request to allow Canopy Tree and Shrub Care, LLC (“Applicant”) to temporarily utilize a portion of City-owned Merrill Springs Park, located at 5102 Spring Ct, (“Property”), for ingress and egress, and completion work for tree trimming or removal (“Tree work”) for Leslie Herje, 5054 Lake Mendota Drive.
The Applicant shall be required to comply with the terms of the Temporary Land Use Permit. The draft terms include the following:
The Tree work must be completed between the hours of 7:00 am and 2:30 pm. All work shall be completed in one day.
If the ground is saturated or wet conditions exist, the City has the right to dictate the date when the Tree work will take place in order to minimize damage to the Property.
The Applicant shall meet with City Parks staff at the Property to determine the work that is required and agree to the access route for going through the Property. The Property can be accessed from Spring Court or from the adjoining lot. Any trucks must remain in the Property for the duration of the Tree work (they may not drive in and out of the Property during the day) and must exit the same way they came in.
It is at the City’s discretion if the Applicant will be allowed to utilize chain saws or other equipment at the Park to cut the tree or if the Applicant shall only be allowed access for the removal and the cutting of the tree will be done off site.
The use of the Property is good for the specified date and time range only. Any other entry into the park constitutes trespass.
The Applicant is responsible for all clean up after the Tree work is completed. If City resources are required for cleanup, the Applicant will be invoiced on a time and material basis for all costs incurred to the City.
Any damage to the Property, to the turf or any other part of the park, will be repaired by City of Madison Parks ...
