This Regular Meeting of the Southold Town Tree Committee was called to order at 7:05 PM at
the Southold Town Annex.
(There were no minutes from the December 12, 2018 meeting as Diane was not in attendance)
Discussion Items:
The Board reviewed letters supplied by the Planning Board regarding tree trimming along Route
25 by PSEG. It was decided that in the future when these letters are received same will be
circulated throughout the committee, so that we are aware of the activity in the area.
Peg will pick up the posters from the various schools on February 7, 2019 — for Arbor Day
contestants. Pegs has compiled her yearly list — "Arbor Day School Handouts 2019" and has
come up with a total of 1457 handouts, of which 335 trees will be distributed. The committee
has decided to use the same vendor as last year for the trees. Jay will be in charge of the activity
sheets and we will once again use Academy Printing for the bookmarks.
Arbor Day will be on April 26, 2019. Town Board meeting for poster contest winners will be
April 23, 2019 at 4:30 p.m.
Derek Bossen remarked about the possible damage the "religious" signs which keep popping up
all over Town are having on the street trees which are posted with nails. Dave will send a letter
to the Chief of Police regarding same.
The stumps of the trees in Town still need to get removed from the ground. When the ground is
not so frozen we will try to wiggle same out with a mini-excavator.
The next meeting of the Tree Committee will be February 20, 2019 at 7:00 p.m. in the Town
Annex Board Room.
This meeting was adjourned at 7:40 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Diane DiSalvo \1
