Save the Trees of Brookhollow


Save the Trees of Brookhollow
The Issue
Brookhollow Business Park is a luscious green property in Santa Ana, California that is the home to two sparkling ponds and a waterway with ducks and turtles, and a mini-forest of giant canary island pine trees.
The tranquility of these trees provide an unforgettable experience for every visitor. They dampen the noise from overhead jets and freeway cars, provide tens of thousands of pounds of oxygen, and offer a home for neighboring animals and birds such as the great blue heron. As dangerous amounts of carbon emissions fill our sky, we know trees are good for our us. A majestic 40-45 year-old pine is awesome to behold. When removed, we will never again experience its full glory.
Ayzar Management has continued to systematically remove these trees for the past seven years. One building owner was allowed to chop down a tree for signage and storefront visibility. Another requested removal not because of building damage, but because of normal tree debris and the "menace" of squirrels.
In 2016, a board meeting proposed removing more than half of the lake to construct a hardscape playground for tenants. This project would have required the removal of several pines. In 2019, twenty-one mature pines were chopped down. Four more were removed on Mother’s Day weekend. And, despite protest from owners and experts, in January 2020 four more of these magnificent trees were removed forever.
A Google Earth history search will quickly reveal the shocking disappearance of these trees during the past ten years. We have seen large, cool swaths of shade vanish. We have watched in horror as hummingbirds and their nests tumbled to the ground. We have seen the enchantment of this magical-like paradise become destroyed.
We understand that owners are entitled to protect their investments. However, AyZar Management should not be allowed to destroy mature trees without first conducting a non-biased certified tree-risk assessment for harm. Virtually every owner in Brookhollow Park purchased their properties because of their love for nature and they are happy to pay their fair share for normal tree trimming and maintenance.
Please help us save this park. An arborist report states that:
All trees are very healthy, pose no harm to any building or person, and recommended not removing any tree because of the tremendous monetary and ecological benefits they offer.
Although our world needs trillions of more trees, we must first take a leadership stand for these trees necessary for our sustainability. I think we can all agree that trees are good and may even be our last hope for climate change. Let’s begin by saving the trees that are right before our eyes.
Support us by signing this petition demanding that Ayzar Management protect, preserve, and maintain the trees and ponds of Brookhollow Park, and declare that no healthy, mature tree will ever be removed again unless there is proof beyond a reasonable doubt that a tree poses an imminent danger to a building or a person.
