Scheduled Tree Removal

Posted in Community, Retail & Restaurants on October 23, 2018 | Leave a Comment »

A message concerning an upcoming tree removal at 232 E. Ponce de Leon Avenue.

Downtown Decatur Residents and Business Owners:

Over the past few months, the City’s Public Works Department has been working to improve a drainage problem in front of the business located at 232 E. Ponce de Leon Avenue. In order to fix the problem, the sidewalk area has to be re-graded and, unfortunately, this will require removal of a nearby tree.

Staff tried to design the repair without removing the tree, however in order to make the fix, the tree must be removed.  Be assured that a replacement tree will be planted immediately.  A root barrier will be included in the installation so that the tree will not damage the sidewalk.

If you have any questions or comments, please contact DEC Director John Maximuk at John.Maximuk@decaturga.com
