It appears that a major destructive chainsaw attack has been unleashed on our city parks. It seems that some city employees have found money to take down healthy trees in our parks at a time when our parks are not adequately funded. The email cites 4 examples which I happened to see. I did not go looking for these or other similar problems. You can help me help Mayor Taylor and other city leaders by trying to estimate the extent of the problem. If you are aware of any recent chainsawing in city parks or other city property, please let me know about it by email at herb.beattie@sbcglobal.net or calling 749-4586.
