District engineer identifies three dead pines; board authorizes removal at $250 per tree
Summary
District Engineer Kurt Heath reported three dead pine trees needing removal and estimated $250 per tree; the board gave consensus to authorize removal during staff reports on Feb. 17, 2026.
District Engineer Kurt Heath told the Heritage Pines board he was inspecting Fairway Green and reported that three dead pine trees needed removal, estimating the cost at $250 per tree. The minutes record that fallen trees near Heritage Point Drive had already been removed and that additional removal requests had been received.
The board reached consensus to authorize removal of the three dead pine trees. The minutes do not specify the contracting vendor, exact funding source for the removal, or a timeline for removal; cost is recorded as $250 per tree in the engineer’s report. Resident comments elsewhere in the meeting raised concern that cutting pines could be cheaper than removing vines and that many pines could be at risk if vine growth is widespread.
