I think Garry Oak ecosystems with their understory of camas and other native understory species should be preserved. However the mere presence of Oak trees does not indicate the presence of the ecosystem as many understories were destroyed decades ago. The trees themselves are adequately protected. Actual ecosystems should be identified by ground checks as the existing mapping was apparently mostly done by aerial photos

 Toatlly agree with your comment, the tree's are protected and in most properties the original eco system has long been removed or altered wtih developement including the dwelling and the introduction of lawn and gardens.
