To be onshore. Inside these squalls, and thats a squall when you look outside, look how pitch black. Windy, youve got heavy rain. When these go by, it will look really bad. That will be happening in Pinellas County and even into manatee and sarasota counties by about 6 00, and then eventually some of this activity will kind of sit over the bay area tomorrw as the storm begins to move to the north and northeast. Lets zoom in. Bands of rain coming up from the when this areas of red go by is when the wind and rain really picks up. Thats moving rapidly from south to north. Now, half of hernando citrus and pasco are dry, but theres more rain heading your way from the south and southwest. We slide south look at this solid line of rain. At the put that into motion and you can see it is moving north, but the line itself is slowly shifting to the east and then of hermine, our skytower is powerful enough to look all the way out in the gulf and see what appears to be, i wont call it n eye, but yo
Having the long healthy life as establishing itself as a mature tree that will last the length of time that we would idealy like it to. What we are trying to do is make decisions that again ensure the over all health of that forest. If we wait until it becomes hazardous there is a high likelihood that we will not have funding at that point to deal with. Poor suitbility means that the tree may not be an immediate Failing Health right now but we are projecting that treat is at risk and the high risk, based on establish arborist principles that it may really pose a risk five or ten years from now and we will not be at the site and have the funds to deal with these issues.

What is before us is a permit that relates to the building, to the tennis court, to the paths around it and perhaps, to the landscaping that that is impacted by this particular permit. And then the question is and it has been brought up by a few of the speakers, some concern with the tree that are being removed to relocate the Tennis Courts. And it is interesting that the two play grounds that have had Tennis Courts, that came in front of this board, both have relocated functional Tennis Courts in light of a master plan. I will not dwell on that too much, because i think that the level of Community Outreach and participation here was much more extensive than the other instance.

Really until october that somehow everybody came to the realization that this was in the natural areas is really unfair to the opponents to this project and to suggest that the opponents of this project have to file another appeal, oh, no, you are not the ones who get to decide this, although i thing that the charter requires you to resolve these issues because it is not in the best interest of the public that this goes forward as planned. But to suggest that they have to go forward to the board of supervisors that would bring more delay and i think that what you need to do right now, is require the Planning Department to go back talk to the community, and find out if the community is okay with these trees being removed. Thank you. Do you care to state your name for the record .
