This Regular Meeting of the Southold Town Tree Committee was called to order at 7:00 PM at
the Southold Town Annex.
Minutes from the April 19, 2017 meeting were approved.
Discussion Items:
1. Dave reported that he had spoken to Vinnie Orlando and that the trees in Mt. Beulah
and on Shipyard Lane in East Marion had not been cut down yet.
2. Dave will be meeting with Mark Terry to investigate further the grant money which is
available to us from the DEC and will also be meeting with the Town Attorney's
office to review the draft of the Tree Code with him.
3. Dave congratulated the Committee and particularly Peggy Murphy for their efforts
for the Arbor Day activities, which were successful again this year. Dave read aloud
the rules of the Arbor Day contest.
4. Dave asked that someone check the trees in Town to see if the "root rot" has taken
effect, and if not that perhaps we would drill more holes and apply an additional
amount to the stumps.
5. The Tree Committee projects to plant 100 trees this Fall through our Partnering for a
Greener North Fork, and hope to draw more attention to our committee from the
Public.
6. Peggy will utilize the extra bookmarks from Arbor Day and distribute to some of our
libraries.
T. The Committee decided that we will participate in the 4th of July parade through
Town and nominated Jay Jansen as our Parade Committee Chairperson.
8. We spoke about updating of the "tree" in Town Hall, of all those who have donated
trees to the Town throughout the years.
The next meeting of the Tree Committee will be June 28, 2017 at 7:00 p.m. in the Town
Annex Board Room.
This meeting was adjourned at 8:00 PM
Respectfully submitted, -
Diane DiSalvo
