Large Oaks in Old Town Suwanee Targeted for Removal
Three 'mature' oaks on Main Street are in city's right-of-way.
No timetable is set, but three large oak trees in the city right-of-way on Main Street in Old Town Suwanee have been targeted for removal.
City officials recently hired an arborist, who gave each of the trees a "high" risk rating, meaning that "monitoring" and eventual removal will be necessary.
"Each of these trees poses an unreasonable level of risk to surrounding targets," according to a document filed with the city by the arborist, Onebark of Stone Mountain.
