Resident urges interim trimming at Carleton Cemetery as full removal quotes rise
Summary
During public comment a resident asked the Select Board whether lowering a hazardous canopy at Carleton Cemetery could reduce immediate risk while full-tree removal quotes remain high; highway staff said they would consult DB Tree Works about options.
During the Citizen Comments portion of the meeting, Dennis Devereux asked the Select Board whether at least canopy trimming could be done at Carleton Cemetery to reduce immediate fall risk because full removal quotes had become expensive. Clinton Woolley responded that he would speak with DB Tree Works about the possibility of trimming rather than full removal.
The board did not authorize immediate work at the meeting; Woolley will report back after consulting the contractor and reviewing options.
