Hello, all,

I want to let you know about some tree markings you're going to see today. 

Stantec,  the city's contractor with the stream restoration project, will be out today to mark the invasive trees of heaven and honeysuckle  slated for removal in mid- to late November.

This removal goes the length of the ravine, so don't be surprised to see trees marked down around the Calumet bridge and beyond.  

The city's contractor is to replant trees in the public right of way (not sure when that is happening) but won't replant on private property.  Green Columbus is giving us nice trees for use on private property.   I'll be contacting the homeowners in question to give them the trees, and I might be arranging a work group or two to help plant if people request the aid.

There are about 30 trees and honeysuckles on private property being taken out. 

The trees we have in hand are good-size ones.

Thanks for the update, Cindy.  

When I was researching about TOH removal for several trees on our property, I learned that cutting them down without killing the root system first will create multiple suckers from the root ends the following year, and ypu end up with more work or a bigger peoblem eventually. Do you know if the city is taking this into account in their removal process?

Good question.  The city's  contractor will be using an herbicide to kill roots. What you said about suckers is true.
