JUST SAY NO –Shade Tree Commission member Arnold Schmidt led his fellow Commissioners in sending a letter to the Township Council opposing a proposed deal that would allow public money to be spent on planting trees on private property.
The Township Shade Tree Committee voted at its last meeting to tell the Township Council it opposes a proposed deal that would allow public money to be used to buy trees targeted for the Canal Walk housing development.
The deal was described in an April 21 letter, written by an attorney representing the Canal Walk Homeowners’ Association, which includes a laundry list of proposed mitigation efforts to shield Canal Walk residents from two warehouses – known colloquially as the B9 project – planned to be built across Mettlers Road from the development.
