Red Bank council to weigh tree removals, plantings, and CFMP submission
The Red Bank Borough Council is meeting to discuss and decide on several tree-related matters, including requests to remove trees at 247 Bridge Ave and 4 MacLaren, and to plant trees at 135 South St and 64 Locust. They will also review updates on the Community Forestry Management Plan (CFMP), Broad St plantings, Marine Park tree plantings, and the White Street parking lot replanting. The agenda is largely procedural and focused on tree management, with no zoning or planning board applications.
- 247 Bridge Ave: request to remove a 31-inch DBH American Sycamore to access a storage tank; staff recommends keeping the tree and finding an alternative, with replacement requirements per Ordinance 2024-14 (3 trees of 3-inch caliper or $900 per tree)
- 4 MacLaren: tree removed by DPU despite staff recommendation to even the sidewalk with cement
- 135 South St: request to plant a tree on the right-of-way; staff recommends Service Berry or Japanese Lilac due to overhead wires
- White Street parking lot replanting: discussion on species selection (Chinese Redbuds vs. Japanese Zelkovas) and tree size (3-3.5" caliper instead of 4-4.5")
- Tree Canopy Expansion Program Phase 1: new request from 195-197 Mechanic, budget cap of $150 per tree, and plans to expand to Westside and Sunset Avenues

b.247 Bridge Ave - Request to remove a tree:”We are in the middle of selling our
property on 247 bridge ave, and there is a storage tank adjacent to the sidewalk that
needs to be removed. I have attached photos of the tree, sidewalk, and building. In
order to remove it, we would need to remove a tree on 247 bridge ave that is
surrounded by electrical wires.”
The tree is a very healthy, large (31 DBH) American Sycamore.
Remedios referred the request to Shawna -
“Our recommendation is to find a way of removing the storage tank that will not
require the removal of the tree.
Per Ordinance 2024-14 If the tree is removed, they should be required to plant 3 trees
of at least 3" caliper size and/or donate $900 per tree not planted
We prefer to keep the large Sycamore Tree.
Large trees pull more particulate pollution from the air and absorb and store
significantly higher amounts of carbon dioxide than young trees due to their larger
leaf area and greater total biomass.”Eastside Park: A White Oak located near the
playground had to be removed by DEP after large bands of contaminated material
were discovered beneath it. DEP would like to replace the tree with a Red Oak. STC
