Dear Editor:
RE: Paved paradise, April 18.
It might be that all the trees in the six square blocks in Elora that Heather Wood mentioned are simply dead.
I have a 40-foot ash tree at the corner of my property that I planted over 30 years ago – it was a tiny, spindly thing about a foot high back then. It now has a blue dot painted on it by the township, suggesting ultimate removal; we plant, they grow, they die. Plant another one.
