body
HEARING REQUIRED: No Hearing Required
SUMMARY:
It has come to my attention that protected trees and other trees have been marked for removal at Carpenter’s Creek at the corner of Brent Lane and Springhill Drive. It appears that the trees are located on a city piece of property. The trees are magnificent pine trees and may be protected under the tree ordinance. These trees are critical to the restoration of Carpenter’s Creek
