No reluctance on Town/Region's part

I have noticed no reluctance on either the town, or the region, to cut down trees. I have also seen several trees killed by salt, both on streets, and private property.

Both the town and the region, make a half baked attempt at re plants, with what I would consider weed trees, which at best, have limited lifespans. They should be replaced with indigenous species.

I also note that, most of the town's replants, die within a year or two.

Private property tree removal should depend on several factors. IE blocking sight lines, damaged by ice, wind, etc. But at the end of the day, private property is just that. PRIVATE. Not the town's business, unless the tree in question has been deemed "Heritage".

When the Ash bore came into play, I saved a jar of seeds. Now that it's gone, I plan to propagate some.

By time they get to a decent size, the threat will be over.
