HAMMITT Bob <br /> From: MEDLIN Johnny R <br /> To: HAMMITT Bob <br /> Cc: PLAMONDON Scott F <br /> Subject: FW: Woodleaf Notice of Application to Remove Trees <br /> Date: Tuesday, June 17, 1997 2:28PM <br /> Hi Bob, <br /> I understand this has been discussed at the CMO level and that we have been instructed to abide by the <br /> timeline which Richie has outlined below. I just need to make sure it is understood that our past practice <br /> has been never to issue the permit until after the appeal period has past. The logic for this is that it makes <br /> the outcome of an appeal academic if the trees have already been removed by a quick acting applicant. <br /> This is a fairly major deviation from that past practice. <br /> The schedule below allows no time for anyone opposed to the removals to even know the permit has been <br /> granted before the trees can start coming down. While the letter of the law looks like we can do this (or <br /> so Scott tells me we have been informed by the City Attorneys office), we subject ourselves to the risk of <br /> an augment that this is a done deal and that comments or appeals really don't matter. <br /> We will move forward in line with the below schedule unless instructed to do otherwise. <br /> Thanks <br /> Johnny <br /> From: PLAMONDON Scott F <br /> To: MEDLIN Johnny R <br /> Cc: BELLMORE Mike <br /> Subject: FW: Woodleaf Notice of Application to Remove Trees <br /> Date: Tuesday, June 17, 1997 1:45PM <br /> Johnny, FYI Thanks Scott <br /> From: WEINMAN Richie D <br /> To: PLAMONDON Scott F; KLEIN Glenn <br /> Cc: FARKAS Abe K; BOWERS Lew C; Hugh Prichard <br /> Subject: Woodleaf Notice of Application to Remove Trees <br /> Date: Tuesday, June 17, 1997 10:34AM <br /> This is the timeline as I understand it: <br /> June 16 Notices were mailed to all property owners and residents within 200' of Woodleaf <br /> Village <br /> July 1, 5:00 PM Comment Period Ends, Metro can be informed that a permit will be issued. <br /> If there are no written comments, there can be no appeals. <br /> July 2, 8:00 AM Tree Cutting Permit can be issued, work can commence on the site in accordance <br /> with the approved plan. <br /> July 16 5 PM Deadline for someone who commented to file an appeal.
