Gerry Paul was appointed scribe. <br /> 2. The Committee discussed and voted 6-0 in favor of the following position concerning the potential <br /> removal of a tree at 497 Concord Ave <br /> "The Lexington Tree Committee recommends consideration of all possible options that will <br /> allow the 42" Oak tree at 497 Concord Ave. to remain, and recommends due diligence in <br /> protecting the tree during construction if the tree is to be saved. <br /> If, ultimately, approval is given for the removal of the tree, we recommend that the appraised <br /> value of the tree be paid to the Town for deposit in the Lexington Tree Fund for allowing <br /> removal of the tree. <br /> The fair market of$39,850 has been determined by the attached tree appraisal dated June 1, <br /> 2020 by Matthew Foti, a certified arborist and appraiser using an industry standard method." <br /> The meeting was adjourned at 3:45 pm. <br />
