[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The large trees are great, but eventually they do get unhealthy and can come down. If they plant lots of trees to replace it, no big deal. [/quote] The reaction on Nextdoor is not to taking down diseased trees. It's to developers cutting down healthy heritage trees as a routine part of doing business and not blinking at the fines because it's just assumed it will be paid on every project. There was a whole article in the Post, emergency legislation passed, etc. None of this is about diseased trees.[/quote] +1 There was even a post on DCUM in the last year about a woman who hated birds because they woke her kids. The number of people who recommended cutting down trees for that very purpose was the saddest thing I'd ever read on here. It is a big deal to take down a healthy heritage tree, or any tree because it's simply a nuisance. [/quote]
