Muttontown board approves removal of 158 trees at 1792 Route 106 with remediation plan
Summary
After a brief public hearing on Nov. 12, 2025, the Muttontown Board of Trustees approved the removal of 158 trees at 1792 Route 106, conditioning approval on a Building Department–approved remediation plan and a $5,000 escrow deposit.
The Incorporated Village of Muttontown Board of Trustees voted unanimously on Nov. 12, 2025 to approve the removal of 158 trees at 1792 Route 106 (Section 25 Block 58 Lot 0061A). Trustee Chris Economou moved to approve the removal; Deputy Mayor Sudha Prasad seconded and the motion carried.
The approval was conditioned on submission of a tree remediation plan to be approved by the Building Department and the provision of a $5,000 escrow deposit. The minutes record the motion language: "approve the removal of 158 trees and as a condition of approval a tree remediation plan approved by the Building Department and an escrow deposit of $5,000 must be provided." Trustee Economou made the motion and Deputy Mayor Prasad seconded.
Deputy Mayor Sudha Prasad opened the public hearing at 7:05 p.m.; Superintendent Tony Toscano provided an overview of the application and the applicant’s architect and landscape architect were present for questions. Trustee Michael Schloss moved to close the hearing at 7:07 p.m. The minutes record there were no public comments during the public-input period.
The board’s recorded action is procedural approval tied to the remediation plan and escrow condition; the minutes do not list a separate timeline for plan review or additional mitigation measures beyond the Building Department approval and the escrow requirement.
