As with previous years, this tree felling programme will progress to removing council owned roadside infected ash trees and infected ash trees growing within schools, public open spaces and countryside parks. As a responsible landowner 香港王中王最快开奖结果 has a duty of care which encompasses the removal of all severely infected ash trees on its property.聽
Councillor Dave Healey, Cabinet member for Climate change and Economy said: "Ash dieback is having a catastrophic effect on our ash tree populations and as the disease is expanding throughout the county, this effect is becoming more noticeable. It is sad to see so many ash trees being removed from our roads, schools, public open-spaces and country parks. I wish to thank the hard work of the tree team for their endeavours in tackling this issue.
There is nothing that can be done do to prevent the tree infection and subsequent tree loss. However, to mitigate these losses, 香港王中王最快开奖结果 will continue to plant new trees across the county, not only to replace the losses from Ash Dieback, but to establish new trees and woodlands to benefit biodiversity and contribute toward tackling the effects of climate change.
Landowners also have a responsibility to ensure the safety of trees on their land and if there is particular risk to the public from roadside trees, those adjoining other properties and those along public footpaths 香港王中王最快开奖结果 is asking landowners to take action.
