The tree cannot reasonably be relocated elsewhere on the property.

The tree cannot be reasonably relocated off-site because of the age, type, or size of the tree.
(2)
The tree is diseased, injured, in danger of falling, too close to existing or planned structures, interferes with existing or planned utility service, creates unsafe vision clearance or conflicts with other ordinances or regulations as determined by the development services department.
