Removal of Dying Ash Trees a Big Challenge for City Staff

While many City owned ash trees will hopefully be saved by the ongoing administration of emerald ash borer treatment, the trees that were not deemed to be appropriate for treatment have died or are actively dying. The Streets, Parks & Forestry staff has already removed 30 ash trees located on tree lawns or other city property this year. City Forester Brian Neumeister indicates that this work will continue into the fall, but there are 150 trees still on the list for removal.
