Resident urges removal of dead tree near 18906 Rolling Hills Loop
Summary
Resident Tom Martin told the Heritage Pines Board a dead tree near 18906 Rolling Hills Loop has been standing for "two or three years" and should be removed; the chair said the District Engineer and grounds staff will investigate and follow up.
During the public comment period at the Heritage Pines CDD meeting, resident Tom Martin asked about plans for Rolling Hills Loop and reported a dead tree at 18906 Rolling Hills Loop that has been present for "two or three years." He said the tree "needs to be removed" and called the area an "eyesore."
Chair Kathleen Lonergan said the District Engineer, who was not present, had coordinated with Environmental Solutions and that crews cannot remove material larger than 5 inches in diameter without engineer approval. Lonergan asked Mr. Martin for the exact location and said the engineer will investigate and follow up with Grounds Superintendent Tim Gatz. The comment prompted staff follow-up rather than an immediate vote.
The exchange underscored limits on on-site removal inside wetlands and the difference between handwork and mechanical options discussed later in the meeting. Mr. Adams indicated staff would route the location to the engineer and update Mr. Gatz.
