Put all the trees in a tree museum




Penny Lane's email is heating up over the removal of a bunch of palm trees from our wonderful Palermo. These mature trees are worth a lot of money. Where did they go? They've been trucked off rather than replanted here.

Going around the complex it looks like the trees that were removed were mostly near driveways on Sunburst and Sandy Point. Hope something is put in their place really soon.

This has been another failure of communication, and just when was the decision made to do this? Was it approved at the last board meeting? Was there an emergency in that it couldn't wait for input at the next meeting? something seems amiss at Palermo. Talk to us.

Sad that the palm trees were not replanted on the property.They were beautiful mature trees. You can never have to many palm trees.

I look at the lovely picture of the pool on this web page and can only imagine it looking even nicer with some of our palm trees planted there. A missed opportunity I think.

I also agree the trees could have been utilized right here on property to enhance it even more.

Why weren't the trees replanted on the property, or at least a few of them could have been. The main pool needs much better "treeing" to make it feel like a Cali resort. Palermo needs more palm trees, not fewer. I don't like how this was done. It stinks royally.

What happened to the new trees for these empty holes

What Happened to the Cash? said...

I'd like to know what happened to all the cash from these trees - big trees like that are worth $2500-plus. Who pocketed the money?????

Are they cutting more trees down - a bunch of tape on them.

that tape has been up the trees for weeks and no explanation from management. Typical DRM/board/Bushore style.

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.
