City of Windy Hills Report: – Kate Greer
The City prefers to hire City Arborist Mike Hayman to assess the trees on Ambridge Road and then contract with The Plant Kingdom for their care. Hereafter the responsibility to assess and care for trees planted by the city on Ambridge Road will be delegated to the Tree Board as requested by the Council. Kate will ask that the mayor send a letter to Chair Martha Davis to this effect.
Kate reported that as a result of the recent newsletter article, some residents have called to add trees to the list of trees planted in the city.

Arborist Report: – Mike Hayman
Mike is meeting this weekend with the five Rudy Lane homeowners who have requested trees as part of the Tree Board’s Rudy Lane re-canopy project.

2015-16 Work Plan

Members Jodi Smiley and Kate Greer reported on efforts to identify other areas of the city in need of canopy trees. Jodi shared a color-coded map she had prepared which helped the Board identify areas in the north end of the city for work this fall and in 2016. The board members unanimously agreed to send letters of invitation to residents on Indian Ridge, Kitty Hawk, and Bonfire Roads where the need for canopy trees in the right-of-way has been identified. Similar areas of Wexford Place will be targeted in 2016.
Jodi agreed to obtain the house numbers for properties needing trees. Kate Greer will work with the city office to identify resident-owned (non-rental) properties, and Marcia will prepare the letters for mailing.

The next meeting will be Thursday, November 5th at 7:00 p.m.

If any member sees a discrepancy between the minutes and what occurred or sees a need for corrections or additions, e-mail Secretary Marcia Myers at marciaclarkmyers@gmail.com. Your approval of these minutes is granted unless the secretary hears otherwise from you.
