Do they have a plan to replace these trees, or are they just removing them?
It has been my understanding that when specific trees are removed that there is no process for directly replacing them.
The Adopt-a-Tree program has been effective in getting trees back onto blocks, though, and the Urban Forestry Division of DPW has been good about getting trees into under-served communities.
