Trees, lakes and slopes: Federal Way specifics
Federal Way grew up inside a second-growth forest dotted with lakes, wetlands and creeks, with Puget Sound bluffs along its western edge. That makes it a great place for trees and a place where tree rules matter more than usual:
Lakes, wetlands and creeks
Steel Lake, Mirror Lake, North Lake and Twin Lakes, along with the Hylebos, Joes Creek and Lakota Creek drainages and dozens of smaller wetlands, mean many lots touch an environmentally critical area or its buffer. Trees there need city approval and sometimes a full permit.
Puget Sound bluffs
Homes above Dumas Bay, Dash Point and the Sound sit on steep, sometimes unstable slopes. The city treats landslide and erosion hazard areas as critical areas, and tree roots help hold the soil, so bluff trees call for an expert opinion before anything is cut.
Second-growth firs and hemlocks
Many neighborhoods were built among tall Douglas fir, western hemlock and western redcedar. Hemlocks are shallow-rooted and prone to wind-throw, and trees left standing when a lot was cleared are suddenly exposed to wind.
Maples, alders and madrones
Big-leaf maples form heavy multi-stem crowns that can split. Red alders decline quickly once mature. Pacific madrones on the dry bluffs are prone to leaf and canker diseases. Each needs a different approach to pruning or removal.
