Fiscal Court hears appeal to save tree recently slated for cutting (VIDEO)


Property owner Roger Winstead, along with his attorney, Jimmy Gentry, made their first appearance before the Fiscal Court this morning after a battle over a tree that goes back to early summer.
The tree was first discussed before the court on June 12, 2013, as the county was discussing roads that needed to be resurfaced.
After the court voted in September to cut the tree down, now Winstead and his lawyer have come forward with evidence that a family of Federally protected red-tailed hawks inhabit the tree.
