We would like to discuss the removal of the apple tree(s).
They have become an unbearable nuisance to the residents that live directly adjacent to the apple trees. They attract 1000's of flies and are a health hazard. Kids from off the block come and gather the apples, walk down the block and throw them at people's houses.
I really think people that don't live in front of the apples trees truly understand what it is like. We cant hardly sit on our stoop without flies attacking our kid our coming in our homes every time we open the door. Removal would also allow much needed sun light into the center of the park. I don't see any reason NOT to remove the large apple tree.
We would not suggest taking out a tree lightly, but fruit bearing trees really have no place in an urban environment. We would happily finance a more appropriate replacement tree.
If you disagree, please present a reasonable argument at the block meeting.
Thank you
