Its been perhaps 10 yrs ago, so I'm uncertain which was the tree contractor we used. A neighbor had some tree removals done recently and was happy with the Santa Maria contractor, so you might try them.

In our experience, the contractor arranged for all the approvals. Needed both OP's CPI and the county's coastal bays approval, as the tree was close to tidal waters. Perhaps that nearness was within 100 ft.?? The tree was healthy, but was leaning towards our house, so that was the basis for its removal.

Good luck.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where:
Tom,

I know you posted this last year but I have a couple follow-up questions. You wrote:

When we needed a leaning tree to be removed, the tree contractor helped arrange for, & provided necessary advice, about the required OP and Coastal Bays paperwork, inspections, etc.

Who did your tree removal? Did they prepare and submit the paperwork to OPA for approval? What was your opinion of the contractor's work? Did OPA have any issues with the removal? What was the OPA criteria that was the basis of the removal approval?

We are considering a removal as well and would appreciate hearing other folks' recent experiences with the OPA process.

Thanks - Chris
