Q. Please describe the area that needs attention
A. Tree in photo at front of the circle as you drive up Whitney Circle needs to be cut down. It's half dead and an eye sore - not completely visible in the photo, but you can see the roots pulled out of the ground. Can't do it ourselves, because it's on town property. During the last/only really significant snow storm of winter/spring 2023, plow driver RAMMED the tree several times ( instead of just leaving a pile of snow in front of the circle as is usually done). PLEASE HELP THIS TIME!

As of 10/1 2023: Still not resolved.
Snow plow smashed the tree in late winter/ early spring 2023. Issue first reported April 2023.
Not sure if my attempt to reply from my desktop PC went through this morning.

I see no evidence that anything has been done. I’d already given up… other things are probably more important.
Tree is now dying, looks awful. I just don’t look at it. I try to maintain the landscaping in the circle - leaf removal etc, but can’t take down a half dead tree especially on town property.
We’ll put out reflective stakes this year to try to prevent future damage.
