🚨 FINAL VOTE: Show Up for Pasco’s Trees
Pasco Board of County Commissioners Meeting
This is it.
The Tuesday, March 24 Pasco Board of County Commissioners meeting is the FINAL VOTE on proposed changes to the County’s tree ordinance — changes that could permanently weaken protections for trees and natural habitat across Pasco County.
As development accelerates, this decision will shape whether Pasco protects what remains of its tree canopy and wildlife habitat — or allows more clear-cutting with minimal accountability.

Subject
FINAL VOTE March 24 — Please Protect Pasco County’s Trees, OPPOSE New Resolution
Dear Commissioners,
I am a Pasco County resident, and I am writing ahead of your final vote on February 17 to urge you to protect Pasco County’s trees and natural habitat.
The current tree mitigation caps are far too low. Allowing a developer to clear an entire acre of mature trees for a few thousand dollars is not "mitigation"—it is a bargain for the developer and a permanent loss for our community.
I am asking you to raise the standards for tree preservation. We need rules that make it more expensive to cut down a tree than to design a project around it. Please revisit the acreage cap in the Land Development Code and put the "preservation" back into our tree ordinance.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
[Your City]
