Frequently Asked Questions

Why were trees removed?

The goal of the landscape project is to meet the state mandates, federal conservation guidelines, the City’s adopted Forestry Masterplan, and the Climate and Environmental Action Plan. The tree removals help with the regrading of the median to meet state mandates on landscape and water quality. 


The tree removals were not taken lightly. Each tree was evaluated by a third-party arborist, and it was determined that the pine trees were inappropriate for the median.


Is the City replacing the trees?

Yes. Using updated landscape practices, the City aims to plant the right tree in the right location. This project will plant 71 new oak trees and approximately 9,000 new shrubs of varying sizes within the medians along Westlake Boulevard.

Project Benefits

The center medians along Westlake Boulevard between Thousand Oaks Boulevard and Allyson St. currently contain mostly dead and dying ornamental turf, along with non-climate-adaptive trees. The project will incorporate lessons learned from the Forestry Master Plan demonstration sites and include new high-efficiency irrigation systems and California-friendly drought-resistant plant materials and trees.
