Prospect revises hazardous-tree enforcement letters; mayor to review draft

5782744 · September 12, 2025

Summary

Committee members said they are revising letters used for hazardous-tree code enforcement and that the mayor wanted to review drafts; work is in progress and limited by a member's temporary typing restriction.

At the Sept. 11 Prospect Forestation Committee meeting, members said they have begun revising the letters used for hazardous-tree code enforcement and that the mayor requested a review of the draft before it is finalized.

A committee member reported that work on the letters is underway but still a "work in progress." The member said the mayor wants to review any material before it is presented publicly. The same committee member also said they have limited ability to write or type at present because of shoulder therapy and therefore cannot complete the drafting work alone.

No statutes, ordinance numbers or specific enforcement procedures were cited during the discussion. Committee members did not take a formal vote at the meeting on the letters; they described the revision as ongoing and said staff and other members would continue work before bringing a final draft for the mayor to review.

The record indicates that the revised enforcement letters will return for further review at a later date but provides no timetable for a final decision or distribution.
