Many concerned citizens turned out yesterday along a section of N 175th St in Shoreline to protest the city's plan to remove 274 trees, 48 of which are on private property, while preserving just 191 trees. Save Shoreline Trees Co-chair Suzzane Tsoming helped organize the event and mentioned trees were removed about a year ago along N 145th St as well.
Lake Forest Park and Shoreline have very strict tree ordinances in place when it comes to homeowners trimming or removing trees. However, it would appear that Sound Transit doesn't listen to local politicians, governments, or citizens.
Those condemned appear in red:
Sunny, with a high of 75 and low of 47 degrees. Sunny for the morning, fog overnight.
