CITY COMMISSIONERS' REPORTS/COMMENTS Commissioner Andrew Meadows — Seat No. 2 Congratulated Planner Emily Hanna for receiving the 2017 Urban and Regional Planning Alumni Achievement Award from the University of Central Florida. Commissioner Sandra Solomon - Seat No. 3: • Added her congratulations to Ms. Hanna for the award from UCF and expressed appreciation for her hard work and that of her department and other city staff. • Raised the subject of concerns she had received from residents in the area of Marigold Road about the work being done there and the removal of palm trees, asking about tree replacement. Public Works Director Mark Gisclar advised that the palm trees would not be replaced in the rights of way as the root systems had cause some damage to the drainage lines. However, he stated that the City would provide oak trees for those residents that wished to have them placed in their yards and who would agree to take responsibility for maintenance of the trees. • Expressed some concerns about dead trees she had observed along Red Bug Lake Road in the area of Mark David Boulevard. Mr. Gisclar advised the trees were not dead but were bald cypress and red maple which had been dormant and were now starting to bloom.
