Subject: Forest assessment
It was very nice meeting you today & looking over the nice forested area behind your housing
addition. Listed below are the species I could identify:
1) Hackberry 2) Willow 3) Elm 4) Mulberry 5) Pecan 6) Green Ash 7) Eastern Red Cedar 8)
Dogwood 9) Callery Pear 10) Persimmon 11) Privot.
All of these trees supply native birds & mammals with an abundant food source. The Eastern Red
Cedars are also a great winter habitat for our native song birds. The creek running along the
northern edge of the woods is a great riparian areas for birds, mammals & amphibians as well.
With the new construction of multi-level town homes going in, it would be a benefit to the
abutting existing home owners & the new town homes to have either all of or a partial remnant
of this forested area left. The benefits of having a slice of nature left are; being able to see & hear
wildlife amongst the expansion of a growing urban setting. Also, having the forested area left will
keep the current property owners & the new town home residents from looking right at each
others backyards /balconies. Being able to keep some privacy is an important thing. If the
forested area was to remain, I would only guess the new tenants would love to have their
windows /balconies looking at trees instead of someone's backyard or roof of their house. Also
the benefits of a forested area like this will help to slow down stormwater runoff & help to clean
the air.
Once an area like this is lost it would take years to come back & could only do so if areas of the
new construction would allow for vast amounts of new trees to be able to have a large enough
space to grow & flourish. But why start over when an area like this already exists. Proper
construction protection zones could be set up to help protect & save this area so it can stay
around for years to come.
Hope this helps. If you have any further questions please feel free to contact me.
