There are thirty-one (31) coconut palms and three (3) <br /> medjool date palms donated to the city by the Williams Island owners. These trees have been <br /> appraised by the City's Landscape Architect, Bill O'Leary and valued at approximately$57,100.00. <br /> REASONS: <br /> The trees have been planted on our vacant lot in Golden shores on 191" Terrace. It seems that we <br /> are always in need of a palm either due to disease or vehicle damage. By accepting these palms we <br /> have created our own small tree farm to be used when and where needed. <br /> ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: <br /> After our most recent hurricane,Wilma,gasoline was extremely hard to find due to the loss of <br /> electrical power.Williams Island donated 2,500 gallons of fuel to the city with the proviso that the <br /> Acqualina employees be allowed to fill their cars. <br /> Agenda Item OK <br /> Date I I - 19 -05 <br />
