Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The board decided that a protected (heritage) tree at 500 W. Middlefield will not be removed, meaning the tree will remain in place. A separate removal request for a tree at 961 Eichler Drive was postponed while staff and the property owner work to schedule a new hearing. Commissioners also heard updates about the local tree-planting/maintenance program and the parks department’s upcoming budget, which does not itself change city services but gives the board information for future recommendations.
