The state is planning to cut down old trees in a town to build new road. Many citizens in the town do not want the trees to be cut down. What should the citizens do to solve this problem?
Answers
control measures to protect public
trees from infestation and
authorizes the tree warden to take
the necessary steps to save these
trees.
Utilities, including power and
telephone companies, also have
rights within the public right-of-way.
With permission from the town,
they may prune or cut trees that
interfere with lines and poles along
the roadside.
Law enforcement officials enforce
the laws making the cutting of trees
on other people’s property or within
the public right-of-way a crime.
Defining “Shade and
Ornamental Trees” and Other
Terms
The term “shade and ornamental
trees” appears throughout the law
of trees, but the law does not define
the term. A public shade tree
provides shade to people using
public places, including roads, the
town commons, and public
institutions. An ornamental tree is
one that is cultivated for decorative
purposes. Neither shade nor
ornamental trees are limited to
particular age or size. Assume that
any tree or shrub within the public
right-of-way, or in a public place, is
protected by the law. Don’t try to
be sly with definitions to get around
the law.
All the citizen should oppose the state government by coming together and taking steps to save the tree and also the environment
