It just got sunnier on boulevard street in florence, Burlington County. But that is not a good thing according to residents. The township chopped down a number of large shade trees. Its taken away the values of the homes. John smith is not happy, as part of a project to replace curbs and sidewalks, the municipality cut down a half dozen of 70 of the sycamores and maples that make this street attractive. They destroyed the character of the street and they have taken trees down and never replaced them. There is a stump in tims front yard and a pile of fire wood that will last for years. It stinks though, its destroying the old town character hst street. Looking at the stumps and seeing the damage inside of the trees, they say that tree experexper experts carefully study and identify the trees. If the township knew the trees were in danger of coming down, and took no action, there is a liability problem, but its our job to make sure the residents are protected. The concern is that the trees will not be replaced. But florence officials are promising that new trees will be planted. That will happen this fall. I wish we were notified ahead of time and it may have stopped the controversy here. I used to have shade and now we get full sun now. There may be fewer trees but Officials Say its a lot safer.
