Thank you for reporting this issue which has been referred to the Transportation & Utilities Department for review. The trees will be inspected by an on-staff Forester. The decision on removing the trees will be based on this inspection. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak and limiting staffing, our response may be delayed. Your patience during this time is appreciated. As soon as a decision is made on the trees at the retention basin, you will be informed.

The forester has finished his inspections, and recommends that the trees be removed. This project will go to bid and trees removed as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience during this process.
