This letter is in regards to the current status and condition of a Sable
palmetto tree located at the Gordon residence at 333 9th Street
Atlantic Beach, Florida 32233. The tree is located on the north side of
the house in the back yard center.
This mature palm tree is approx. 50’ft in height with a 15” DBH
(diameter at breast height). It has a severe lean from the neighbor’s
house to the north. Additionally, the trunk has several compromised
areas that show significant decay.
Based on these factors the tree poses unacceptable risk to the
homeowner’s property and is considered a liability. The only way to
mitigate this risk is to remove the tree.
If you have any further questions let me know.
Sincerely,
Robert M. Huffman
