Subject: request for a meeting with Columbus Council



Hello Tiny,



On behalf of the Columbus Tree Board, I request about 15 -20 minutes at a

working non-public meeting of the Columbus Council in order to present the

Muscogee County tree canopy assessment. This has been an on-going project or

the Tree Board for eighteen months.



Tree Board member Troy Keller, a CSU professor conducted a special remote

sensing class at CSU focused on assessing natural resources including tree

canopy's. A graduate student from that class will present the results of where

in the county there is canopy as well as no canopy. She will also present an

analysis for ecosystem values of the canopy including cost/benefits of trees.

We worked with Joseph DiAngelo of the GIS department of CCG in utiliizing

imagery they had acquired He attended the class and gave us feedback when we

presented results.



Please advise when we can come to Council to present our results and suggested

uses of the data.



Thank you,



Bill Consoletti

Chairman, Columbus Tree Board
