Mayor invites activist for tree talk
Kota Kinabalu: Mayor Datuk Abidin Madingkir has invited environmental activist Dr CY Vun to discuss views on ways to preserve trees in the City.
Madingkir said while he is not an agriculturist, he is a nature lover and appreciates the presence of trees in his surroundings.
He headed the committee that set up the Tenom Agriculture Park (Taman Pertanian) while serving as Permanent Secretary in the Agriculture Ministry in 1996. The park impressed former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir who described it as among the best he had ever visited.
"Together with a team of botanists and agriculturists, including well known botanist Tony Lamb, we created the Taman Pertanian," he said.
Vun had earlier described Madingkir as perhaps among the worst of the three Mayors the city has had so far when it comes to tree-cutting. His remarks followed the cutting of five trees a stone's throw from the City hall headquarters and doubted City hall's version that the trees had to be removed because they had been poisoned by unscrupulous quarters.
City Hall said the cut trees would be replaced with new shady ones.
The Mayor said he was surprised why Vun was comparing winter season and spring time to Sabah when there was only one season here, except for the monsoon or rainy season.
He said the removal of dying and damaged trees in the City was done after much consideration and the physical condition of the tree itself.
"Before removing any tree, our Landscape Department team will conduct physical inspections on the said tree, according to the Tree Risk Assessment Guidelines of the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) and the National Landscape Department," he said.

Mayor invites activist for tree talk
Lebanon A proposal to remove more than 30 acres of trees from airport property along Poverty Lane is set to receive another look by the City Council tonight.
Residents submitted letters to councilors in November and December, urging them to revisit the pending tree-clearing project. Among the objections raised are concerns about the effect on property values, impacts on wildlife habitat , and potential increases in noise and light from the airport and nearby Interstate 89. They have also questioned the need for the tree clearing.
After initially rejecting the project which in addition to denuding 33 acres of trees will include removing 38 obstruction lights, replacing them with two 110-foot slow flashing beacons, and moving a fence the council approved the $1.2 million project in phases in 2011, 2012 and 2013. Ninety percent of the work is set to be paid for through federal funds, with the state and city each contributing 5 percent.
Though councilors set tonights meeting to discuss the issue, there is no indication they intend to change course. They have said the project is necessary to improve visibility for pilots along the southern side of the east-west runway, northwest of Poverty Lane and south of Interstate 89, and to comply with federal regulations and requirements by the citys insurer.
People who do this for a living at the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) say this is a risk, Mayor Georgia Tuttle said of the trees in a phone interview Tuesday. When a pilot flies into an airport with fog, storm or rain, they have to have more than a narrow landing zone.
In a memo included in the councils packet for tonights meeting, Airport Manager Rick Dyment said that the city committed to comply with FAA safety guidelines when it entered into an agreement with the federal government to operate and maintain the airport in 1941. Subsequently, the city has agreed to 39 FAA grant assurances tied to federal funds.
Dyment particularly pointed to FAA grant assurance No. 20, which requires that the airport take appropriate action to assure that such terminal airspace as is required to protect instrument and visual operations to the airport ... will be adequately cleared and protected by removing, lowering, relocating, marking, or lighting or otherwise mitigating existing airport hazards and by preventing the establishment or creation of future airport hazards.
FAA spokesman Jim Peters said in an email that the tree removal project is in accordance with federal regulations and will help to ensure the safety of the airport.
Federal air safety regulations require airports to identify and mitigate obstructions that may impact airport operations, Peters wrote. The obstruction removal project will enhance the safety of Lebanon Municipal Airport by removing obstructions.
With the support of federal funds, the city completed an obstruction study in 2009, which identified some of the hills and trees surrounding the airport as interfering with safe landings and takeoffs. It would be totally unrealistic to remove all obstructions, Dyment said in an interview on Tuesday.

Logging Plan For Airport Up for Review
ST. HELENA Beringer Vineyards and the St. Helena Tree Committee are asking for the publics input on possibly removing two trees from the Highway 29 elm tunnel for safety reasons.
The two trees closest to the Beringer driveway make it hard for drivers leaving the property to see traffic, whether theyre turning right or left, said Debra Dommen, vice president of government and community relations for Treasury Wine Estates, which owns Beringer.
When you exit Beringer, youre practically halfway in the street before you can see traffic coming southbound, Dommen told the Tree Committee last Thursday. There have been numerous accidents.
Beringer is committed to the elm tunnel, which is part of our story, Dommen said. We love the trees, but this is about safety, she said.
Members of the Tree Committee stressed that no decisions have been made. They urged the public to provide feedback about the idea at the committees March 12 meeting, scheduled for 3:30 p.m. at City Hall.
Committee chairwoman Susann Ortega said the State Historic Preservation Office and Rep. Mike Thompson, D-St. Helena, should be consulted. Thompson has previously helped the city, Beringer, Caltrans and other state officials broker deals involving maintenance of the tunnel.
Ortega said the speed of traffic contributes to the problem. The speed limit changes from 45 mph north of the tunnel to 35 mph, which is still way too fast, she said.
Committee members Edie Kausch and Kacey Stotesbery said its too early to make any decisions, but the issue is worth exploring.
City arborist Jim Haller said the two trees nearest the Beringer driveway are in good health, but he agreed they pose a safety hazard.
When Im trying to pull out of there, the front of my truck is sticking out in traffic and Im leaning out the window trying to see, Haller said. It is a hazard.

Beringer seeks removal of 2 elms
Families evacuated from a block of flats in Bebington yesterday after a man began hurling tiles from the roof were allowed back home this morning.
Residents in Conway Court had to find somewhere else to stay last night after the amount of damage caused in the incident meant necessary repairs could not be carried out yesterday.
A large area around the block of flats was cordoned off on Tuesday after a shirtless man climbed on the roof and began ripping off tiles.
Police spent several hours negotiating with him after he went back into one of the flats, and the situation was resolved when a 47-year-old from Birkenhead was arrested on suspicion of criminal damage and affray at 2.30pm.

He was kept in custody overnight and was being questioned by officers at a police station in Merseyside today.
Magenta Living, which has nine flats in Conway Court four owned by leaseholders, including the one involved in the incident spoke to residents last night about securing temporary accommodation and kept an officer on site to offer advice and support to those affected.
The housing association has now confirmed that residents were able to return to their homes this morning after the roof was made safe.
Repair work was set to get underway today by roofing contractors, with hopes it will be completed by the end of the week.
A spokesman for Magenta Living said: Work to make the damaged roof safe, secure and watertight was completed last night, and residents were able to return to their homes this morning. Our roofing contractor is now installing scaffolding to the site so that the major works that need carrying out to the roof can start.

State officials charged with overseeing the $272.7 million State Capitol renovation are warning that the projects cost could go up as a result of a dispute over how space will be allocated in the renovated building.
The Capitol Preservation Commission was supposed to approve a major work package for the project Wednesday, but it delayed action because theres no agreement in place yet for space allocation.
A Thursday deadline for approving the work package loomed before the commission. The package, which includes mechanical and electrical work and finishes, needs to be approved to keep the overall project on track.
Delays could add up to $680,000 a month to the projects cost, the commission said Wednesday.
The commission agreed to meet again Jan. 22 to consider approval of the work package. The hope is that the tenants will have reached a deal by that time, so the project can stay on schedule and avoid cost overruns.
The main tenants the House, the Senate, and the offices of the governor, the attorney general and the chief justice of the Minnesota Supreme Court have to sign off on the space plans before the work package can be approved.
Gov. Mark Dayton, who chairs the commission, declined to go into specifics about whats holding up a deal. But he said progress has been made and he expressed confidence that a deal will be in place by Thursday, Jan. 22.
We know we have to get it done by next Thursday, Dayton said after Wednesdays meeting. The contractor [JE Dunn] just told me that they can live with that. I can never give a 100 percent guarantee, but I will give a 99 percent guarantee that we will have this project approved next Thursday.
At issue is work package 4, which includes mechanical and electrical work such as fire-protection systems, light fixtures, historic lighting restoration, data and fiber-optic cabling, and distribution of mechanical systems from the vertical shafts.
It also includes finishes such as interior stone repair, restoration of wood doors and historic hardware, restoration of wood finishes, finish carpentry, casework and millwork, ceramic tile floors, bathroom finishes, painting, flooring and window treatments.
