Hall, Jennifer <br />From: Victoria Brandon < <br />Sent: Thursday, August 31, 2023 5:44 PM <br />To: Sternberg, Brian <br />Cc: Ridge, Kristine; eComment; tours@esoteric.com <br />Subject: The Parrot Tree <br />Dear Mr. Sternberg: <br />I ask that you allow the Parrot Tree to be saved and protected at the Santa Ana Library. This tree has stood there for a <br />very long time, and has great meaning to all of us who have spent time beneath its branches. I would like to say that you <br />can be an example to others who find themselves in similar situations; by respecting this magnificent tree, you will teach <br />others by your example that such things have meaning and are valued in our society. <br />If your concern is merely one of logistics in the changes that are being made to the building, work around it to ensure its <br />safety. It will add a great dimension to the work that you are doing, and will integrate Santa Ana history into the present. <br />I am certain there are birds and other wildlife who depend on the tree for their sustenance, and I know that you would <br />consider being a steward of such an effort to support environmental issues. Trees are our allies in climate change, <br />offsetting carbon and generating oxygen. <br />Thank you for your consideration, I have faith that you will do the right thing. <br />Sincerely, <br />Victoria Brandon <br />
