SAN LORENZO -- Randy Waage had heard PG&E was going to cut down some trees on the southwest side of the Duck Pond park, but the barren view afterward stunned him.

"It's pretty much decimated the area," the San Lorenzo resident said. "It really changes the landscape of the park."

The power company began removing dozens of trees at the park in February, part of a program to clear obstructions from its 6,750-miles of natural gas pipelines from Bakersfield to Eureka, said Tamar Sarkissian, Pacific Gas & Electric spokeswoman.

PG&E took out 69 mature eucalyptus, privet, bottlebrush and pine trees that were in its right of way along railroad tracks next to the park, formally called San Lorenzo Community Park.

The park district had no say in the trees being removed, said Larry Lepore, parks superintendent at the Hayward Area Recreation and Park District. However, the district planned to remove the trees as part of a park upgrade plan, he said.

At the park district's request, PG&E also took out 35 trees that the district tagged in its park master plan and pruned some others.

San Lorenzo resident Michelle Clowser knew the trees would come out eventually, but she had not expected it so soon.

"I was very surprised after the fact; it looks like a different park."

PG&E's program -- Pipeline Pathways -- comes in the aftermath of the 2010 San Bruno gas pipeline explosion that killed eight people and destroyed 38 homes.

"Since San Bruno, we have been taking great measures to ensure the safety of our pipeline system," Sarkissian said. In addition to clearing its gas transmission pipeline right of way, the utility is surveying for leaks, testing pipe strength, inspecting the lines with cameras and automating valves.

BERNARDSVILLE The complex and emotional battle over plans to cut down an estimated 250 trees at Bernards High School for an athletic field expansion is reaching a critical juncture, with opponents working feverishly to block the project.

If their legal efforts fail, the trees could be chopped down as soon as this month.

Representatives for Active Citizens for Responsible Sustainability Inc. (ACRES) appeared before the Board of Adjustment Monday night seeking an interpretation on jurisdictional issues involving the field proposal by the Somerset Hills Regional Board of Education. But after several hours of intense debate, the zoning board rejected its arguments.

The evidence I have seen is that we do not have jurisdiction, said Board of Adjustment Attorney Scott Parente.

ACRES is seeking a site plan review of the application by the zoners. Concerned about drainage and other environmental issues, they see the field expansion as an intensification of a non-conforming use in a residential zone.

During a convoluted, sometimes heated discussion, the board debated whether the tree removal should trigger a site plan review, even though no formal application had been filed by the school district.

ACRES wants to see a different field alignment which the group claims would save hundreds of trees and thousands of dollars.

Some zoning board members wanted additional time to review the matter Monday, but the school board, which is facing a March 15 federal moratorium on tree cutting that could delay the project several more months, pushed for a decision.

Were in a terrible position, Board of Education Attorney Richard Cushing said.

Huge tree crashes down in Highcliffe churchyard damaging a number of gravestones

12:00pm Thursday 6th March 2014 in News

A HUGE tree which came crashing down at a graveyard in Highcliffe following the heavy storms is being prepared for removal.

The 40ft oak has damaged a number of gravestones at St Marks churchyard and the groundsman, Philip Buxton said he is eager for it to be removed as soon as possible so relatives of the deceased are spared any further upset.

Mr Buxton said the tree must have come down on either February 20 or 21, a week after torrential rain and gale force winds up to 70mph sent trees to the ground and caused flooding throughout the area. The church has now hired contractors and Mr Buxton said he is planning the safest way to remove the tree, which is currently resting across several gravestones.

Mr Buxton added: We have had small trees come down in the past but nothing as big as this one.

Huntingdon Valley, PA (PRWEB) March 06, 2014

Back in 1974 when the average house cost $10,990, a gallon of gas was only .55 cents and Jimmy Fallon was just born, Lou Giroud, founder of Giroud Tree and Lawn, was 18 years old and starting up a lawn service company in Huntingdon Valley PA. Now celebrating its 40th Anniversary, Giroud Tree and Lawn has earned awards from consumer groups like Angies List for providing outstanding tree service and lawn care services to homeowners and businesses in Montgomery County, Bucks County and Philadelphia PA.

Originally known as "Lous Lawn Care", the Company was officially launched in March 1974. Operating out my parents' garage, Giroud Tree and Lawn started small, serving customers in the local neighborhood, says Lou Giroud, Founder, President and ISA Certified Arborist. From the beginning, the Companys mission has been to make customers love doing business with Giroud. Its a simple idea that guides how we handle everything from a customers first call until after the job is done.

Fast forward to 2014 and travel up the road just a few miles from its original garage. Giroud Tree and Lawn has grown from a single employee serving customers from a 1956 Dodge pick-up to 38 employees, 22 trucks and a variety of specialty equipment, all housed at its headquarters in Huntingdon Valley PA.

Giroud is also very much a family business. While Lou Girouds sons, Jeff and Matt, are in training to learn the business from the ground up, the Founders wife, Cindy Giroud, is the companys Director of Marketing. Additionally, Vice President, brother in law and ISA Certified Arborist, Drew Slousky , a core part of the company since 1977 is joined by his wife and Lou Giroud's sister, Shelly Slousky, in office administration and his son, Scott Slousky, the companys In-house Arborist.

The Garfield Board of Education will start a bidding process for the district's landscaping, snow and tree removal.

Last month the resolution didn't have enough support to pass. Some board members said they needed more time to look into the resolution and to talk with the director of facilities.

The resolution recommended by the superintendent of schools and assistant superintendent of finance/board secretary, approved Edvocate's, a consulting company, services for managing the invitation for bid process of the district's landscape, snow and tree removal. The resolution is for $5,000 for the proposed services.

Business Administrator and Board Secretary Dr. Edward Izbicki said currently the work is being done in house by two custodians. Izbicki said after the meeting that it was a matter of the amount of work and how large the district's facilities are for two people to handle.

Board member Anthony Barckett said that after having further time to look at the resolution, this is for extraordinary circumstances like the winter and excess snow this season to get the schools clean.

Board member Richard Derrig, who voted against the resolution, said during the meeting that he finds it "disrespectful" to the members who voted against the resolution last meeting to put the resolution back on the agenda.
