We were dismayed to see how many trees had been removed from the park. The removal appears to be tied to a damaging wind storm last September. The work to clear the area is still very incomplete: slash piles waiting to be burned; stumps not ground out; no replanting effort.
I imagine that funding cutbacks, lack of available workers, and Covid all play a part in the situation.
It breaks my heart to see this once beautiful park in a state of disrepair.
