Quick context to catch up fast.

Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
Eight trees were approved for removal because of decay, severe decline, structural concerns, utility-line risks, or interference with planned sidewalk construction. Two additional trees will remain in place and be monitored rather than removed because the commission found no imminent danger and residents objected. The commission also postponed officer appointments until more commissioners are present and deferred approval of the April 2 minutes.
