purchase from Mangus Nursery :
Tabebuia : replacing one that had died in front of the
Marcy property [ 2425 S . Ocean Blvd . ]

Mr . Behrman noted that Mr . Mangus had been very helpful in coordi -

trees had risen sharply , most probably an effect of Hurricane Andrew
in 1992 , and advised that in the future it would seem likely that the
Committee would necessarily have to charge more than the existing $300
donation for new trees .
