The Windermere Tree Board is hosting a special meeting this morning.

The board members will meet at the site of the Downtown Redevelopment Project, the 500 block of Main Street, to meet with the developer's landscape team to review landscape plans in relation to tree root zones and spacing.

The project relates to an application from Windermere Downtown Property, LLC to the town to rezone and obtain approval of a preliminary development plan to redevelop 2.17 acres at the northeast corner of Main Street and E. 6th Ave.

Complete information for the project can be viewed here.

The special meeting will take place at 9 a.m. on Thursday, Sept. 1.

The tree board's mission statement is to "augment community awareness of our urban forest, provide education regarding the benefits of trees and a commitment to protect, preserve and proliferate our community’s urban forest, and beautification of our Windermere parks and recreation areas."
