*Until the city decides they want to change it
That's why people want to ensrine in law that those trees don't change. They don't trust the city to maintain homeostasis for the duration of their residency.
What happens when people want to build a new apartment building but those trees are too big to safely build next to?
- nerdbert 4y agoYou make a very good point: Only cities chop down trees, private landowners absolutely never ever do.
- parineum 4y agoThey don't (legally) on city property. That's what we're talking about. If you move into a neighborhood where the city maintains the trees in the common areas (sidewalks, parks, etc.), it's not unreasonable to want to put a barrier between the city deciding, for example, it's too expensive to keep maintaining those trees so they are going to cut them all down. If I or my neighbor wants to cut down a tree is a completely different conversation. I appreciate your snark though, even though it's completely irrelevant.
