I wonder if we have a tree hater at Rutland County Council, I wish we had a tree warden who cared for our trees. Cllr Joyce Lucas is Oakham Town Councils tree warden, so who is to blame, in my area this year we lost two healthy willows because people complained about leaf fall.
Now RCC has once again attacked the trees in the market place just as they were almost starting to look like trees again.
A resident near Royce Playing fields wants three healthy cherry trees cut down. So the tree warden is planting four new half standard trees in front further away from the property. When these have grown she says reluctantly the old ones can be cut cut down.
Trees do take a long time to grow and hopefully we will have a new tree warden then and the man may have gone and the trees will receive a reprieve.
