Trees to be preserved have all been marked at breast height with a 4” green painted dot. All other trees, stumps and debris is to be removed. Trees consist primarily of weed trees (Tree of Heaven, Box Elder, Elm, Silver Maple, Mulberry, Norway maple) of poor quality that have sprung up over the years (see attached table).

The primary group of trees runs 600 feet from north to south through the park in a 20-30 foot wide band. There is level ground open ground to the eastern side of this band.

The western side borders several basketball and a tennis court. These courts, their fences and lighting are to be protected. Another, group of smaller weed trees runs along the retaining wall on the western side of the Park. All trees, stumps and debris on this side of the park is to be removed.
