The Park Stockdale Civic Association board of directors approved removal of a diseased ash tree in the playground after it dropped three limbs during recent windstorms.

John Karlik, a tree expert with the UC Cooperative Extension, said the tree was infested with carpentermoths.

Three neighboring trees that were leaning were also trimmed.
