Gary Preston, Parks and Recreation Department, presented to
the Board the Village of Tequesta Comprehensive Tree Plan, and
a memorandum dated May 12 , 1992 , listing the responsibilities
and goals for the Tree Board, from the Village Manager to the
Village Council. Mr. Preston reviewed with the Board the
Comprehensive Tree Plan.
Mr. Preston explained that the Village of Tequesta applied for
the award of Tree City USA last year, only to be turned down
because the Village did not have a Tree Board. That has since
been rectified.
1. Review of Village Comprehensive Tree Plan. The Board
felt it was more important, in the future, for the
Village to put more emphasis on regarding new plantings
on shade trees and flowering trees. The tree expenditure
for 1992 has been approximately $2 . 00/capita.
