Trees deserve that same vigorous protection, an invaluable part of the Wilmington streetscape. Living downtown, I can already viscerally feel the loss of trees: streets once a joy to walk on have blocks of denuded canopy where the sun beats down relentlessly. Both losses from Hurricane Florence and from unrestrained development imperil the Wilmington we love. If Wilmington is going to vigorously protect its historic buildings, do not its living trees deserve the same safeguards? Absent that foresight, we imperil the beauty of the area and forfeit our city to rising temperatures and a downward spiral of environmental degradation and loss. "“The one who plants trees, knowing that he will never sit in their shade, has at least started to understand the meaning of life.” Please act now to vigorously safeguard Wilmington and its trees for future generations.

I live off Myrtle Grove Road and I am astounded by the number of new projects being developed where All trees have been removed!!! Imagine the amount of run off caused by the removal of trees that would absorb the water that will end up either flooding the neighbors yards or end up in our precious marshes and water ways!!
Please create an oversight committee to assure Developers and Builders are no longer allowed to do what is the quickest and easiest way to prepare land for building. Due to the rampant development in our county, so many of our ancient live and water oaks, magnolia and pine trees are gone forever! All the spindling trees that may have been planted ( very few have) will take a lifetime to grow to substantial trees. Please consider what this is doing to the place we all love to call our home!
