Board approves $600 stump‑grind by A‑Z Tree Service behind 11453 Heritage Point Drive
Summary
On unanimous motion, the Heritage Pines CDD approved a $600 A‑Z Tree Service estimate to remove a hazardous tree and grind the stump behind 11453 Heritage Point Drive; the Board considered two other A‑Z proposals for $350 and $5,475.
The Board of Supervisors unanimously approved an A‑Z Tree Service estimate, in the amount of $600, to remove a tree and grind its stump behind 11453 Heritage Point Drive.
"They are similar tasks but with different intensities and different methods; the areas done by ES will likely be more esthetically pleasing because it is more of a handwork approach; whereas, A‑Z will use a forestry mulcher, which grinds everything," District Manager Chuck Adams said when the Board compared the ES scope with A‑Z's forestry‑mulch approach.
The three A‑Z proposals presented included: Clean Up and Trim behind 11453 Heritage Point Drive ($350); Remove with Stump Grind behind 11453 Heritage Point Drive ($600); and Forestry Mulch Around Pond at Waterlily Lane and Rolling Hills Loop ($5,475). Michael Walsh moved to approve the $600 stump‑grind estimate; Stephen Putman seconded the motion and the vote was recorded as "with all in favor."
Board discussion noted the differencing methods (selective handwork by ES vs. mulching/grinding by A‑Z) and linked the approved stump‑grind to a resident complaint about debris and a damaged, hurricane‑affected tree near 11453 Heritage Point Drive. The Board did not record additional conditions on the A‑Z work in the transcript.
