Melanie Preventing a Tree From Making an Escape |
This afternoon I got a phone call from an excited Melanie Hammet.
"Are you in town?"
"Yes."
"Do you have your camera?"
"Yes."
Melanie told me crews were planting trees-- big ones-- around the lake and in the wetlands. Five minutes later I was at the lake.
Sure enough, there was a big bunch of trees stacked near the beach house.
Every few minutes a man driving a front-end loader came by and carried away a few to the eastern wetlands, where crews were standing by newly-dug holes.
One of the project engineers told Melanie the trees should be in leaf within four or five weeks. I can' wait!

I am interested in knowing what kind of trees and shrubs are being planted. I understand that Melanie and Megan have been overseeing this project and have this information. It would be great if this information could be made available to the public.
I know there's an assortment. I imagine you could get a list from city hall or from the city Q&A meeting next week. If I find out, I'll post a list.
