Spurred on by two recent cases of unlawful tree cutting on private property in Potomac, the West Montgomery County Citizens Association invited representatives from Montgomery County Planning Department to speak at its December meeting.
Stephen Peck, Senior Planner and Forest Conservation Inspector, and Kristin Taddei, Forest Conservation Planner Coordinator, joined the meeting via Zoom to share, “a fact-filled discussion of trees and forests – how to protect what we have and how to increase them,” as the meeting was billed in the WMCCA December newsletter.
Following the meeting, WMCCA President Ken Bawer gave two examples of recent incidents of tree cutting leading to investigation and, in one case, a $1,000 fine.
