TR-2026-021

Project TR-2026-021 is a forecast application submitted to the City of Cupertino for the removal of one covenant-protected 13-inch DBH Morus alba, also known as a Fruitless White Mulberry. The tree is located at 1195 Yorkshire Drive in Cupertino, California, and was originally required by DIR-2013-012 to provide screening for second-story windows on the west side of the residence. The request is supported by the neighboring property owner at 1191 Yorkshire Drive, who confirmed that existing privacy vegetation, including two Arbutus unedo Strawberry trees and a Ligustum japonicum Texanum hedge, provide sufficient screening. The project is associated with NAICS code 561730 and is managed by the City of Cupertino. Administrative details include a CEQA filing with the Santa Clara County Clerk-Recorder's Office under file number ENV26156, with a filing date of June 9, 2026, and an expiration date of July 9, 2026. Punit Jain is listed as the applicant, and Catherine Tarone serves as the primary point of contact in the role of Permit Technician.
