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 May 23, 2018 meeting were approved.
(There were no meetings held for June or July 2018)
Discussion Items:
The Committee discussed and agreed that the 4th of July parade was a big success. Dave
reported that he 'heard a lot of positive comments from the "public" recognizing the Tree
Committee and the work which we do for the Town.
Peg informed us that Friday, April 26, 2019 is Arbor Day.
Committee discussed the potential for grant monies which may be available to us and the need
for us to investigate this possibility.
Dave discussed his concerns about many of the "State" trees on Route 25, which are not our
responsibility, but that of the State's to take down and replant, but that the problem is getting
worse. Dave is to speak to Vinnie Orlando, and would like the Committee to make notations
about the locations of problem trees from Laurel to Orient.
It is once again time for our Fall event with the Suffolk Times advertising for vendors. Dave
will contact the paper about reserving Columbus Day weekend — Jay will get the brochures
printed up which will be left at Dave's office for the committee to pick up at their convenience.
We hope to start our Fall planting in mid-November.
The Committee decided to change our regularly scheduled meeting for September from the 19th
to the 26th in order to accommodate our deadlines with the Suffolk Times for our Fall
"fundraiser".
The next meeting of the Tree Committee will be October 24, 2018 at 7:00 p.m. in the Town
Annex Board Room.
This meeting was adjourned at 7:40 PM
Respectfully submitted,
Diane DiSalvo
