- This was the state champion Dawn redwood on North Ohio Street in Arlington. Despite protests, petitions, and public comments, Arlington County did not find a way to save the tree on a large lot where a builder plans to construct two large homes.
-
- The Dawn redwood with its lower limbs removed.
-
- Then it was gone, a champion no longer.
How do we prevent this from happening again?
I sent a letter to the County Board suggesting how the tree could be saved and I am sending it out via the list serve. Any support via your comments to the Board would be appreciated.
It’s a shame that the county board did not even try to save the tree… and the tree was in a Resource Protection Area (RPA) to boot!
Let’s cut all the trees down, while we’re at it. Greed always seems to win out. Maybe mother nature will have her way with this hurricane coming.
