See the irony here? |
They're paving over paradise.
Is this how a Tree City USA community treats mature shade trees?
My morning post has generated significant contacts. Who did ask for this mega path? Anyone, anyone, Bueller? See 11:00 AM, July 9, 2021, SW 136th Street Shared Path Update: Construction begins! Crews at work as of Friday, July 9, 2021. Photos, links to background resources provided.
Who spoke up for these trees? I put the information out there. People are certainly feeling the urgency now that the heavy equipment is showing up.
I stopped by Friday evening to take a close look at some of the trees that greet those entering Palmetto Bay on SW 136th Street. Beautiful mature shade trees. I am posting some photos to remember them by. Someone call the Governor to see if we can get them a last-minute reprieve - clemency for these trees mark for removal.
FAIR QUESTION: Do I have a better idea - better than the 8-10 foot sidewalk for Palmetto Bay?
YES I DO - look at these trees - I would prefer benches under these majestic trees. There is a sidewalk there now.
Remember - when current Palmetto Bay officials deflect and say this is a county project, that's not true. Palmetto Bay paid and had control over the design of the street - all documented in prior posts.
