Morning all, I meant to send this a few weeks ago but it fell off my immediate radar. Eric, please meet Jonathan Perkins & Joey Hampton (you all may already know each other, but just in case it’s never been official ). I am connecting you three today because Eric has been working with other surrounding Tree Board leaders to come together to create a State wide invasive species ban, with a focus on Callery pear, for starters. I know I mentioned this to both of you when we spoke, but this is the reminder because, again, it has been weeks since I talked with you guys about this Eric can take it from here, can’t wait to see you both again sometime soon – ideally before KAA, Jonathan! heather ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Heather Wilson Program Manager Sr. Division of Environmental Services – Urban Forestry ISA Certified Arborist Municipal Specialist KY-0805 AM ISA Tree Risk Assessment Qualified Phone: 859.270.9694 lexingtonky.gov/urban-forestry PADUCAH TREE ADVISORY BOARD – Attendance Sign-in Thursday, June 20, 2024 Time: 8:30 PM Location: Team Room, Paducah City Hall Name: Email: Organization: Jonathan Perkins jonathan@pla-design.com TAB Chair
