Overview: During the recent Temple Terrace Code Enforcement Board meeting, attention was focused on multiple cases involving unauthorized tree removals and property compliance issues. A case concerning the removal of three protected oak trees by the Victoria Terrace Condo Association on Grandville Drive stood out as discussion point. The board assessed the violation, which was deemed “irreparable and irreversible,” as the trees were entirely removed without permits. The City Arborist, Joe Ferris, underscored the importance of following proper procedures, emphasizing that no prior evaluation was conducted before the removals. The association’s representatives attributed the incident to a misunderstanding with their tree service provider, which had operated under outdated regulations. To mitigate the violation, the association proposed replanting either 25 three-inch trees or 12 six-inch trees. The board imposed a $250 fine.
