Residents tell Heritage Pines board of hurricane‑damaged trees and debris on district land
Summary
Two residents raised concerns about damaged or invasive trees and a debris pile on Heritage Pines CDD property, citing hurricane damage and potential hazards; board members inspected and scheduled contractor work where appropriate.
During the public comment portion of the meeting, resident Tom Martin asked about plans for Rolling Hills Loop and reported a dead tree near 18906 Rolling Hills Loop that has stood for two to three years. "He thinks the tree needs to be removed and that the area is an eyesore," the minutes state.
Resident Don Brothers described a tree behind 11453 Heritage Point Drive as an invasive species that was significantly damaged by recent hurricanes and flagged a debris pile on CDD land. Supervisor Stephen Putman inspected and photographed the site earlier that morning. The board discussed estimates from A‑Z Tree Service and Environmental Solutions; staff placed the stump‑grind estimate on the agenda and the board approved A‑Z’s $600 removal and stump‑grind for the property identified by residents.
