suggested that she bring it up as a regular agenda item in the <br /> Heritage Tree Committee. Greg also spoke with other tree commis- <br /> sion members and reached agreement to "stay the course" and <br /> continue with the development of the management plan and not <br /> support a tree cutting moratorium. <br /> Greg plans to personally contact the two developers who attended <br /> the last management plan committee meeting as assure them that <br /> the tree commission will not act impulsively. <br /> Mr. Knuteson told Mr. Bishoff that the tree had rot and needed to <br /> be removed. I examined the tree before the tree was cut down and <br /> it did not show signs or symptoms of decay or structural unsound- <br /> ness. The stump and butt portion of the log have evidence of <br /> decay, but this was limited and not enough to warrant concern for <br /> safety. <br />
