“Yeah, the question I have, do we want to contract this work done? Is it urgent that it happen rapidly, or can we wait until the fire department isn't so engaged with fires? I talked with Chief Matt Peterson, and he let me know that as far as tree removal goes, the work that they can do has been done. And so we would have to have somebody come in and remove the trees. But the stump removal... we could still work on that. Is that something that we are urgently in need of?”

“Second. I'll second. And the difference, in case you're wondering, if there are 23... trees and 21 existing stumps at $313 a piece it would be $13,700 that we could possibly save if we were willing to wait and we wanted to accept that liability so never mind my second stance it's up to you”
