Fence Replaces Destroyed Trees
Originally posted Jan 17, 200717 Jan
Four days after three sycamores were removed (two of them illegally) from the corner of Willow Street & Camino Ricardo, debate continues on the WGNA eList, and the SJ Mercury News reports that fines and official compaints are on the way.
Apparently in response to the negative publicity, the J. Barnes Construction Company installed a fence and massive “Thank You” signs around the property this morning.
