This issue was recategorized from Construction to Trees along City Streets.

RRC Assistant Director - Waseem assigned this issue to Parks Maintenance - Alphonso Lynch

Thank you. Please let me know if I can help. This is a new construction so they should have made larger tree pits. Doesn't the city specify what size they must be?

The Division of Parks & Forestry will begin the necessary steps to address this concern. We Thank You for your patience throughout this process and will be sure to keep you updated, accordingly.

Parks & Forestry adheres to the Forestry Standards, and after review the pits are too small as they should require at least a 4X4 Box/Pit. Forestry will keep an eye on this location to see if the trees continue to grow. Should the trees perish the property owner will be required to replace the trees and to correct the pit size.
