Letter: Require permits to remove trees
Published 12:20 pm, Friday, July 18, 2014
As home building has increased, so has the loss of trees. Home developers apparently think that trees are unattractive.
Is there a permit for tree removal? If not, there should be! Is there something that can be done to prevent this? If not, why not?
I think that homes without trees are unattractive. Do you?
I have been a citizen of Westport for 20 years. Trees add to the charm of our town. It is what attracts people to this town as it doesn't have the urban-suburban feeling. It has a country-like setting. Let's keep it that way!
