Many residents have noticed that the City of Westmount is proceeding to the felling of some public trees in Westmount. All measures are taken\u00a0to protect and care for these trees for as long as possible.\u00a0However, tree removal is necessary\u00a0\u00a0to ensure a robust, abundant and biologically-diverse forest.<\/p>\n

It may result in the detection of structural problems or a diagnosis of a disease that reduces the tree\u2019s vigour and negatively impacts the growth of other trees around it.

In some cases,\u00a0the felling of some sick or infested trees is inevitable. More information<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
