      <![CDATA[<br>
    From the Post and Courier:<br>
    The city's a hero<br>
    Sunday, December 16, 2007<br>
    <br>
    A few weeks ago this space had news of Magnolia Plantation and Gardens receiving a "Landslide 2007: Heroes of Horticulture" award from the Cultural Landscape Foundation. Now comes word that the city of Charleston also won the award.

    You raise some very good points about the stalled developments.

      <![CDATA[When I asked Dr. Ham about tree number 16, which is a beautiful live oak with a 29 in diameter with a weak branch (which could be removed--and the tree would keep growing healthily), he said, "Tree 16 does not ring a bell...I didn't take extensive notes." His notes say "weak branch attachment, poor condition, remove" The developers are requesting a variance for this tree at the BZA meeting Oct 1.

      <![CDATA[The runoff that does not stay within the development will go directley into Church Creek, which is already imperiled. When I spoke with Dr. Ham, he said he had never worked with a tree of that age before, let alone worked with the Angel Oak itself.
