Bike Path Repair & Tree Management Plan
Dear SilverLakes Residents,
We are writing to provide a detailed update regarding the maintenance of the community bike path. As many of you know, root intrusion has caused significant damage to the asphalt in several areas, creating potential safety hazards.
To address this properly, the Association hired a certified arborist to assess every tree affecting the bike path. We have also coordinated closely with the City of Pembroke Pines to determine the best course of action.
Our goal was to preserve as many trees as possible. However, the arborist determined that certain trees are causing extensive structural damage and cannot simply be root pruned without compromising the tree’s stability or health. Consequently, removal is the necessary solution for these specific trees, and the assessment was supported by the City.
Project Plan & Next Steps
Permitting has been obtained through the City, and the project is in process as follows:
Root Pruning: Trees that can be safely managed will be root pruned to help prevent future damage while preserving the tree.
Tree Removal: Trees identified as non-salvageable due to the severity of the root intrusion will be removed.
Path Restoration: The damaged areas of the asphalt bike path will be removed and replaced with new, level paving.
Tree Replacement: Following the construction, all removed trees will be replaced. New trees will be selected based on the arborist and City recommendations to ensure they are the right species for planting near pathways. The replacement timeline will be determined with the City.
We appreciate your patience as we execute this plan to ensure a safe and beautiful environment for our residents.
Sincerely,
Pines Property Management, Inc.
For the SilverLakes Board of Directors.
