Tree Removal Permit Appeal at 151 North Orlando Avenue

A board member floated an annual awareness campaign theme (e.g., a year without styrofoam or fewer plastic bags) to unite the board's green schools, events, and business programs. Staff noted enforcement policies would require adoption, but an awareness campaign is more feasible.
