Although the "plan" is to replant the same number of trees in the area it will take decades for those trees to serve local residents and fauna and to provide the requisite cooling and tree canopy cover that we so desperately need to retain.

We can value the time and the thought that went into the proposal, but its not good. It's bulky, intrusive and dangerous in terms of its misallocation of resources. We need more space for urban farming and resilience, not wasteful paths.

Try again, please.
