Hamilton commission readies Arbor Day planting at Crocket; Jim Hunter to lead tree selection
Summary
The commission set plans for Arbor Day plantings at Crocket, assigning Jim Hunter to choose five shade trees (8–10 feet, including a flowering specimen), scheduling locations and utility mark-outs, and assigning staff to confirm school coordination.
Hamilton Township Shade Tree Commission members discussed plans for an Arbor Day tree-planting event at Crocket during their March 24 meeting, naming Commissioner Jim Hunter to lead tree selection and assigning staff follow-up to confirm planting locations and school coordination.
The commission proposed planting five shade trees at Crocket, with selections to include species such as white oak or sugar maple and at least one flowering tree. The minutes specify tree sizes at roughly 8 to 10 feet. Commissioners discussed choosing exact planting locations and completing utility mark-outs before the planting date, which the minutes set at about one month from the meeting.
Rob (staff member) was tasked with following up with the school principal and Christine at Crocket to finalize arrangements. The minutes note the mayor is unable to participate in the planting due to a scheduling conflict with the League of Municipalities; Anthony Carabelli was mentioned as a possible replacement to assist on the planting date.
No formal vote was recorded; the commission scheduled follow-up outreach to finalize locations and logistics.
