One of the Trees Being Removed to Build City Center

Just wanted to show you one of the beautiful, specimen trees that Alpharetta City Council has voted to remove.

Click on the picture above to enlarge it and take a look at this beautiful, large southern red oak.  This tree is 60 inches in diameter.  Sadly, it will be removed in order for the city of Alpharetta to build a parking deck for the new City Center.

If citizens don't speak up in opposition to this, not only will this kind of thing happen in downtown Alpharetta, but all over Alpharetta. 

Visit the City Council meeting of August 6th and voice your opinion.  Email or call your City Councilmen and voice your opinion.
