If Liza Normandy is a reader of Everything South City, I would like to make a maintenance request for the (used to be) beautiful spreading tree in front of Buri Buri Elementary. Every time I drive past I note the top of the tree is blown over due to the wind coming over the roof of the school building. The tree is sheltered from the wind by the building, but it has grown too tall and the top part is exposed now.
That tree really needs some emergency tree work before it is irreparably damaged. I would like to donate $100 toward the work by a really good arborist. Hopefully there is money in the Measure J account for this work. If not, perhaps others love the tree as much as I do. Replacing it would cost many thousands of dollars. A stitch in time…
Thank you for your comment and I wanted to let you know that I have been in communications with our Director of Facilities Jeff Bonner, who has advised me that he will visit the Buri site and take along our Lead Groundskeeper to review the tree mentioned in your concern.
He has also assured me that we will take appropriate action to resolve the issue.
Thank you very much for your kind response Liza. I am encouraged that my favorite tree will be saved soon. Please let me know if my donation offer will be needed.
