ORMOND BEACH For more than half a century, a majestic pine tree provided ample shade on Bob Coxs property.

Bob Cox and son Austin Cox prepare to pull a pine tree to the ground Monday as Allen Cole uses a chain saw to bring the tree down at the Coxes home on Ormond Parkway off State Road A1A in Ormond Beach. Cox had been hoping to transplant the tree but that proved to be impractical.

Now it will serve a different purpose.

A month after Cox made a plea in The News-Journal for help in saving a 22-foot Norfolk pine planted close to his Ormond Parkway home, the tree met its maker Monday.

You see a beautiful tree like that and its sad to see it go, he said. The only consolation is were going to use it and make something out of it.

Cox had hoped to save the tree from meeting its demise after being told it could compromise his front walkway and patio. The tree was planted on the property in 1959.

The 64-year-old said he received several calls from people who also were hoping to save the tree. One woman came to inspect the grounds and determined it would likely be impossible to save the tree because it would be difficult to keep the roots intact.

Allen Cole, however, saw other potential for the pine tree. The Volusia man said hed be able to make several pieces of art from the tree, including wooden bowls and vases, one of which he said hed make for Coxs granddaughter.

I thought, I can make something out of that, said Cole, who is a member of the American Wood Turning Association and has been working with wood for more than 50 years. Im glad I could salvage some of it, anyway.

Tree's removal offers life lesson

Prepared for the worst: A Maine trooper trains his rifle on the home of the tattooed man. Photo: AP

Norridgewock, Maine: US police armed with assault rifles descended on a man's home after members of a tree removal crew he'd told to leave his property in Maine reported that he had a gun.

But it turns out the "gun" the tree crew had seen on Michael Smith was just a life-sized tattoo of a hand gun on his stomach.

Smith, who works nights, was asleep when the tree crew contracted by a utility to trim branches near power lines, woke him up at about 10am on Tuesday.

In the gun: Michael Smith was not actually armed. Photo: AP

He went outside shirtless and yelled at the workers to leave. When he's not wearing a shirt, the tattoo looks like a gun tucked into his waistband.

Smith told a local newspaper the tattoo has never been a problem before.

Police didn't charge him.

DEBRIS FROM TREE REMOVALwon't be collected in weekly residential garbage pickup in unincorporated Polk County; that has caused disputes between residents and county officials.

BARTOW | Here's a tip for anyone trying to dispose of yard waste in unincorporated Polk County.

If you put out leaves and brush, they'll be gone on garbage day.

If you put out logs, they won't.

The current garbage contract differentiates between yard trash, which includes shrub and tree trimmings and grass clippings, and land-clearing debris, which includes tree trunks, limbs and stumps.

"The contract has definitions," said Ana Wood, Polk's director of waste and recycling.

But somehow that message hasn't gotten through to some of Polk County's 138,000 residential garbage customers, and complaints and misunderstandings persist, Wood said.

Wood acknowledges that county officials themselves are partly to blame for the misunderstanding.

From 1999 to 2005, Polk had written guidelines for yard trash that contained specific size restrictions.

Those restrictions said material couldn't be more than 5 feet long or 5 inches wide.

Trash Dispute: Complaints Made Over Tree Trunk Removal

Kirklands consulting arborist Scott Baker prepares a rope for a tree test he conducted in May 2014. Kirklands contractor, Marshbank Construction, will be removing all but nine of Park Lanes existing trees. Most of the ones that will remain are at the streets Main Street and Lake Street gateways.

During the past 12 months, the Park Lane project team has been working with residents and business owners to redesign Park Lane into a greener, more walkable and vibrant corridor. Park Lanes new plaza-style street will feature a one-level surface of brick pavers and a new stormwater system that will better protect Lake Washington from the pollutants that drain to it every time it rains.

Starting Jan. 5, Kirklands contractor, Marshbank Construction, will begin working on that new vision. This will involve some dramatic changes, such as closing the street to automobile traffic and progressively removing all of the existing sidewalk and pavement.

One of the most visible changes will be to Park Lanes treescape. The contractor will be removing all but nine of Park Lanes existing trees.

Some of them are diseased, said Project Engineer Frank Reinart. Most of them are old and some of them are in the way of new utilities. But the underlying reason we are replacing the trees is to make Park Lane more walkable and accessible for pedestrians of all abilities. The current conditions of the trees make it hard for people, in groups or with assistance, to walk the length of Park Lane.

Reinart points to the maple in front of Cactus Restaurant. That trees base and root mass protrude above the sidewalks surface, reducing to a couple feet the walkable space between the base of the tree and the street on one side, and Cactus fenced dining area on the other side.

A wheelchair cant fit through that space, he said. A person walking with a child might be forced to step into the street. And this is only one such example on Park Lane.

Pedestrian access is the primary reason for removing many of the trees. But other reasons exist. The maples in front of Zeeks Pizza and Cactus, for example, are aging. The maple on the northwest corner of Main Street and Park Lane conflicts directly with the projects replacement water main. Ten more treesmost of them mapleswould not survive the root damage they would sustain while crews build the streets new underground utilities and its walking surface.

Altogether, the project will remove 27 trees, including an ailing oak removed earlier this year. It will plant 35 new trees with five different species be planted. Those species include the more familiar Red Maples and Red Oaks, as well as the tall and slender Musashinos and the broader Redspire Pears and Pink Flair Cherries.

White Rock Coun. Helen Fathers speaks at the Dec. 15 council meeting.

White Rock tree-preservation proponents can breathe easier, after city leaders voted last week to approve bylaw amendments that would require all residents to apply for a permit before taking down a tree.

However, not all councillors were in favour of the amendments, which put a moratorium on tree removal in the city until a 20-year Urban Forest Management Plan for future tree removal on private and public lands receives public consultation in the new year.

Coun. Megan Knight, who voted against the amendments Thursday evening at a special council meeting, said that her concerns focused on the timeline of the amendments.

She noted that the turnaround was quick and that residents should have more time and transparency before the amendments went through.

By a 4-3 vote, council voted to amend its tree-management bylaw, 1831, to include protected trees within the municipal boundaries of the City of White Rock in place of designated areas as per a map.

According to the bylaw, protected trees include those that have a trunk diameter at breast height (DBH) greater than 30 centimetres, or has a combined DBH of its three largest trunks greater than 30 centimetres.

According to Coun. Helen Fathers, prior to the amendments, neighbours could have different rules for removing trees.

You and I could live on the same street and you could live on the east side and I would live on the west side of the street, and you would have to apply for a permit and I can just do what I like, she explained.
