The removal of two oaks at 32 Longmeadow Street was denied after public objections, and the Town has asked the Select Board to appeal the decision on March 23. The committee also agreed to spend $963 on 300 Arbor Day redbud seedlings and is pursuing a grant to plant 65 trees along Bliss Road, Laurel Street, and Williams Street.

The two oaks will remain in place unless the appeal succeeds. A separate hearing is scheduled for March 26 on six trees near Williams Middle School that conflict with its planned demolition and rebuilding. The proposed Cooling Corridors grant would add 65 trees in three areas, while Arbor Day seedlings will be distributed to local elementary school students.
