Commission to revisit prior heritage-tree nominations and accept new submissions ahead of April vote
Summary
Staff proposed reviewing previously nominated but not selected trees and asked whether commissioners want to reopen nominations; the commission agreed to review prior submissions and vote on heritage-tree selections at the April meeting.
Nancy presented a spreadsheet of trees that had been nominated but not selected in prior years and proposed sharing the list with the street-tree subcommittee for review. Commissioners supported revisiting prior nominations and suggested the street-tree group could handle selection rather than creating a new subcommittee.
Dave Johnson suggested showcasing sample heritage-tree signage at Arbor Day and discussed expanding the existing street-tree subcommittee's responsibilities to include heritage-tree review. Nancy said the commission will vote on selected heritage trees at the April meeting after any additional outreach.
