Action on Tree Boxes!

Just a quick note to let you know that the 24 empty or dead tree boxes that I reported to DDOT this summer on on their way to getting filled.

I got an email from DDOT's Ward 1 & 2 arborist last Thursday. Evidently the trees I submitted for planting in June of 2008 didn't get into the system until February 2009, which is why they weren't planted last season. Those boxes were entered into the system, as was the longer, more thorough list from this year.

Hopefully we'll have a nicer canopy in outlying years!! Please note that you can report a tree box for filling by contacting me or the mayor's office at 311.
