The trees were identified because they have “significant rotting wood” and would likely drop larger limbs.

According to urban biologists, “while the trees in question certainly provide a wildlife benefit, the current condition of the trees present a safety issue to the general public.”

For The Love of The Lake and Celebration Tree Grove are sponsoring a tree planting this spring, planning to plant up to 50 trees in the area.
