Randy,
As requested, I went through our tree pruning records for the Freedom Park trees and when they
were pruned. We began pruning the trees including the Parkinsonia ‘Desert Museum’ near the
playground/tennis now pickle ball courts in 2012, we did not prune them in 2013, but starting 2014
it has been continuous pruning on the Parkinsonia trees to the latest pruning September 29, 2020.
When West Coast Arborists did the inventory of trees when they started the Multi year Tree Pruning
Contract in 2018/19 it included an assessment of the condition of the trees. The tree in question
Park 177 was assessed as Good, no Plant or Health concerns.
