Does the Parks and Recreation Department cut and remove hazardous or dead trees in flood plains, green belts or other undeveloped City-owned property?
Answer – The Parks and Recreation Department treats the above referenced properties as nature areas, and fallen trees and logs are left in place for wildlife habitat or refuge. If a hazardous tree is on the outer edge of a wooded area, near areas where children play, the tree would be cut down to lessen the safety risk, but the tree would remain for wildlife habitat.
