When there is construction around mature trees the damages may not be evident for many years. When the roadways were put in and soil levels were re-arranged some roots were cracked and a slow death begins. Other than replacement of these trees there is nothing that can be done. There are several other trees on Morse near Colony Blvd. that are suffering the same fate. We need to plant more oak trees.
