Biloxi planning commission approves tree removal for Moffett Road Cottages
SUMMARY: A recent hearing regarding tree removal for a development on Moffet Road ignited passionate debates. Opponents, including tree committee member Wendy Lai, accused the committee of neglecting protocols in their decision-making. The developer aims to remove 12 live oak trees, despite concerns that seven are dying. A city arborist assessed the trees’ conditions, reinforcing the need for removal. The Planning Commission unanimously approved the permit, supported by the developer’s plan to plant two new trees for each one removed, though some felt this ratio was insufficient. The discussion highlighted broader issues surrounding tree canopies and insurance challenges across the nation.
Drama unfolded during a tree removal hearing before the City of Biloxi Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the request.
