Love the headline ….. LOL …

I was hoping to read something else … oh well … maybe some other time ….

I noticed the City also allowed the removal of Elm trees on Vancouver street for some unknown reason.

I understand that the developer/owner decided they did not like the trees and took them down. Something about them not likely surviving construction so close to them. Makes one wonder how the Courtyard condo project was able to retain their elm trees.

Shows jut how little this Cioty cares about such items. Have a look at the excavation. No more than 20% of the roots were compromised by the excavation. Cut bakc a few branches to compensate and the trees should have survived.

It’s a mindset of “who cares”.

The City has notified the people who live on Pinewood Ave that they will be removing the mature, healthy trees along the south side of that street, soon. In Crater City, with crumbling streets, they would like to widen the existing sidewalks on a residential street.
I don’t know whether to laugh, or cry.

Could it be that city hall is looking in the future and is potentially taking away an option or two from the hostile mobs gathered around city hall(large branches aka hanging branch)

Just got home from Vancouver. There are trees everywhere. And look at South Fort George. Its amazing what trees will do for a City but in PG They want to remove them.

There were two poplars removed in Hesse Park (Well thats what the City calls it). It wasnt done by the City that supposedly has a “faller” on the payroll. It was done by a private contractor. They chipped the remains and left them in a pile and destroyed any undergrowth in the process.

Crazy. The best, and cheapest, downtown revitalization program would be to plant 1,000 trees, en mass, so as to get the cost per tree down to less than $1,000. It would completely change the look and feel of downtown, as well as the air quality.

No more of this onesy – twosy tree planting that costs upward of $2,500 per tree.
