3151 SW 27 Avenue tree permit appeal (BD25-028988-001)

Description

A multifamily project's plan to remove 26 trees plus 15 palms was contested by a neighbor; the appeal was deferred so the parties can pursue larger replacement trees and relocation of a gumbo limbo.

Impact summary

Roughly 286 inches of canopy removal is at stake; the deferral gives neighbors a chance to win bigger replacement trees along 27th Avenue and Lincoln Avenue.
