Tree care bidding dispute prompts council review
The Bristol council debated tree maintenance rules with a $1 000 bid threshold and a plan to split under 1 000 work between two firms. The tree warden and director of public works were proposed to jointly determine need, with dispute over oversight and budgeting as the $14 500 annual fund nears exhaustion. Manuel Almeida and Mr Kinder defend their positions as meetings are planned.
