The Editor,
I live very near to Blue Mountain Park in Coquitlam.
I was walking there today and saw that bright pink plastic ties had been put around a number of trees near the cenotaph.
I hope the city of Coquitlam’s parks maintenance people are not planning to cut down those beautiful mature trees.
As well, a number of other trees have had metal, numbered tags attached to them. I worry also about the safety of those trees.
Blue Mountain Park has wonderful landscaping. The park becomes more special as the trees become older; every one of them adds to the ambience.
