A primary focus of this Symposium will be trees in the urban environment and the need for better maintenance practices. One of the purposes of the Symposium will also be to disseminate a proposed "model" ordinance for ® urban tree plantings that will include maintenance guidelines. Hopefully, this will bring the maintenance problems to the attention of more people and help JOHN NESTOR, c.P.A. generate significant interest in adopting proper ce Chairman & Financial Secret ordinances within our various municipalities and for Dade 371-2731 County.

Submitted into the public , I !record for 'tem(s) A `t on q I c{ I . City Clerk Camesuze Quetant City of Miami Code Enforcement Inspector From: Chris Kest chriskeslmiami@yahoa.corn Subject: Palms Date: April 7, 2016 at 15:57 To: Elvis Cruz elviscruz@mac.cam Three mature palms stood in the small circular median in the front of my home at 600 NE 56th. I witnessed two struck and knocked down by vehicles. y The first was the more mature of the three and closest to my home. A pick-up truck from the city maintenance crew cut the corner too short and hit the palm with the trailer carrying the lawn mower and tools. The trailer went over the median and hit the tree. The driver looked out of the window to see the damage to the palm tree and kept going (I am assuming elsewhere or out of the neighborhood). This was about 4 years ago. That palm did not fall immediately. It was leaning & fell during a heavy rainstorm. The city cut it up and hauled it away. It was not replaced. The second palm was the smallest. As I shared prior, a woman, whom I assume was a worker or housekeeper from my new neighbor's home, lost control of her car and drove up the tree. Her car was front wheel drive so she could not back up. This tree was leaning sideways and then fell to the ground. We (I and another neighbor) made sure the woman was not injured. My neighbor use his truck to pull her vehicle off of the tree. That palm tree fell that day. The city cut it up and hauled it off a few days later. No trees were ever replaced. This happened less than one year ago.
