Residents' petition for independent arborist declined by Stonegate board
Summary
Five Stonegate residents petitioned for an independent arborist to evaluate trees for removal; the board decided the district's arborist would suffice and did not authorize an independent evaluation.
Five residents submitted a petition asking the Stonegate Village Metropolitan District to hire an independent arborist to evaluate trees they believe may need removal. The petition appeared during the Board's business agenda on May 20, 2026.
The Board discussed the petition and decided that the district arborist would suffice for tree evaluations; no independent arborist was authorized and no formal contract was approved. The minutes record the petition and the Board's decision but do not include further detail about the trees in question, the petitioners' identities, or any follow-up timeline.
The decision means the district will rely on its current arborist for assessments unless residents or the Board request further review at a future meeting.
