Bradford, Village Manager, to speak on the Tree City U.S.A. proposal. Mr. Bradford explained that some interested Councilmembers who would like to try to make the Village become more unique in the north county area have tried to focus on things that make Tequesta different than the unincorporated areas and the Town of Jupiter, such as the Royal Palms lining Tequesta Drive with the Live Oaks, the landscaping of the medians, etc. A Village Tree Fund Account has been created, allowing people to make donations in areas they would like to see beautified, but there was no response to that opportunity.. The Village applied to become designated as a participant in Tree City U.S.A. only to find that the Village was not qualified since it did not have a Tree City Board. The Board activity would be: o The staff would produce a tree inventory of all trees owned by the Village, (i.e. , where it's located, what it is, its approximate age, condition, etc. ) , shown to the Tree Board on an annual basis. o The Village would segregate' out of its Budget all the costs associated with Tequesta trees, present as a Budget document to the Tree -Board to show the inventory, its cost of maintenance as well as the management schedule (i.e. , watering, fertilizing, insecticide-pesticide schedule, trimming and pruning) for those trees. o The Board would make any suggestions/recommendations/ changes to this schedule as they see fit and recommend those adjustments to the Village Council who would vote on it. o Once per year Staff would present to the Tree Board events for an Arbor Day celebration, with a suggested, tentative outline of the activities. The Board offers its input and there suggestions are then presented to Village Council for a vote.
