KEYSTONE The Environmental Protection Commission has cited former Tampa Bay Buccaneer Vinny Testaverde for ripping out mature cypress trees from the shoreline of his Lake Keystone home. The trees were in protected wetlands, the county said. "Three or four weeks ago I was getting all these calls from people who saw the trees being ripped up right on the shoreline," said Keystone resident Jim Swain, president of the Lake Keystone Property Owners Association. He said Testaverde removed between 40 and 50 trees altogether. Testaverde has been ordered by the EPC to replace 20 of those trees, some as tall as 40 feet. "We sent an inspector to the site and some of the trees were removed from wetlands," said Bob Owens, a supervisor with the EPC.

By April 30, Testaverde called Inch and told him all tree removal had stopped. He asked if the already-cut debris could be removed from the property. Inch said it could. A third visit on May 1 documented 19 cypress tress and one dahoon holly tree removed from protected wetlands on the shoreline. ...more
