Save Our Urban Canopy - A new local Facebook group

From the group's Facebook About page:

"Proposed City Project 8566 (Davies/Dempsey/Maher) slated to begin April, 2021 if it proceeds through all voting stages, will cut down 35 old-growth trees in the Lake Edge neighborhood and Lake Edge Park of east Madison. We oppose this wanton urban deforestation, particularly during a climate emergency. Contact your Alder (Common Council votes 02/02/20), the Board of Public Works (votes 01/20/21) and the Transportation Commission (votes 01/13/21) and tell them to vote against the Proposal. The city can revise the project to meet the transportation/accessibility needs of the area and folks who pass through it without taking down 35 greenhouse gas-combatting old growth trees."
