Commission gets update on heritage‑tree signage and backlog nominations
Summary
Staff sent artwork to a signage vendor for the heritage‑tree plaques and will bring a spreadsheet of backlog nominations to the next meeting so commissioners can select up to five trees for recognition this year.
Staff told the commission that graphic artwork for heritage‑tree signage has been sent to a signage company and that the next step is to provide text for each plaque and to select suitable mounting stone or a wall mount for some locations. Funding for signage and a vendor proposal exist; staff asked commissioners to help identify plaque locations once the vendor recommendations are complete.
Staff also said there is a backlog of previously submitted heritage‑tree nominations and offered to bring a spreadsheet of the nominations for commissioner consideration at the next meeting; the policy allows up to five trees to be recognized in a given year, though the commission may choose fewer.
