Before and After. When will the ripped out trees be replaced? These palm trees belong to the Palermo HOA. They apparently were put in too close to driveways by the developer, so isn't that who should pay for the removal because of their possible mistaken planning in the first place? But don't the trees themselves belong to the HOA and ought to be replanted elsewhere in the complex?

Let the replantings begin!
Where are the supposed replacement trees. Don't hold your breath.
Sad
did u see the "replacements" - they are little tiny shrubs
Shurbs ..Oh really..more like weeds.. the cheapest thing they could find. You would think with the sale of the palm trees (that were not replanted on the property, which would of been very appropriate arond the large pool) the could have planted something nice like some more ponytail palms....
weeds to replace the tall palms. Nice, really nice.
They said the palms wold be replaced by TREES, and the trees would come from 15 gallon pots. So they lied to everyone, again. The replacements are a joke. WHo got the money from the sale of the palm trees - like $20,000??????
These palm trees are valuable; worth much more than it cost the day labors to dig them out. Homeowners got ripped off in this transaction. Also, palm roots do not generally uproot sidewalks/driveways because of their root system, and certainly not just after a few years. Something is fishy here -- all the more so because management did this just after the January meeting in which not ONE WORD was said about tree removal.
The following is from the Palm Trees Ltd. Web site, and disputes that the palms had to be moved because of uprooting the driveways (something was the cause). The site says:
Will palm roots damage my foundation or driveway?
In general, palm tree roots are no bigger than your finger and do not swell up like oak or pine tree roots, therefore they will not push up on your concrete, etc… and break it.
