Trees and Streetscape Forum Follow-Up
"At the Old Town Events Center Wednesday, city residents and members of the PHW who had gathered for 'Limestone, Sycamores, and Preservation: Tree Forum' quizzed officials about trees that have been removed for the project and plans to replace old sidewalks along the two streets." Plans discussed during the forum about the future of sidewalks and their impact on trees and existing old brick sidewalks and limestone curbing as part of the City's infrastructure project will appear before City Council on April 7, and citizens are encouraged to attend and make their concerns heard.
