Plant street trees into the mapped gaps along Mission Avenue in Escondido

Escondido's inland valley heat makes the surveyed bare blocks around Mission Avenue measurably harsher than the city's leafy north end. Planting approved trees into the mapped empty spots is the corridor's permanent cooling project, one address at a time. Standard: City of Escondido street tree planting process — SDG 11. Proof: Per-tree planting photos matched to survey Method (City of Escondido street tree planting process — SDG 11.): 1. Confirm species and permission for each surveyed spot through the city's process. 2. Call 811 utility locate before digging. 3. Plant each tree at grade with basin and mulch ring, watering in deeply. 4. Photograph each planted tree with GPS and date and mark the survey list planted. Done when: Per-tree planting photos matched to survey

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 30–60 minutes. Method of record: i-Tree canopy / street-tree inventory

Bring

• GPS phone
• DBH tape or measuring tape
• tree ID reference
• camera
• hi-vis vest

Steps

1. 1. Walk the corridor; record a GPS waypoint at each tree.
2. 2. Photograph each surveyed tree.
3. 3. Record species (best estimate), condition class (good/fair/poor/dead), and DBH (diameter at breast height).
4. 4. Count vacant planting sites.
5. 5. Enter the per-tree records, vacant-site count, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Dead or hazardous tree observed -> flag for the responsible agency (no removal by surveyor).
• High vacant-site count -> recommend a planting plan for the corridor.

What counts as done

• Per-tree species + condition + DBH recorded
• Vacant planting sites counted
• GPS waypoint per tree
• Photo per surveyed tree

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
