John Panzanella;Ballfield neighbor– stated his concerns about the tree clearing in preparation of the basketball court. He wants a buffer zone put back. Put trees in as a buffer and they can be put on his property. We asked him to give us an idea of what he wants.It’s okay to plant the trees on his property, but he doesn’t want any responsibility of taking care of them. We will have them professionally planted and warrantied for at least a year. Has a concern with his pine trees with the buffer missing. Due to high winds. Have an arborist look at the trees for advice.
Salute to the flag
