Tree in Courtyard- Removal 9/16/23

Hello Campus Community,

As part of the repaving work in the courtyard, we have been advised by an arborist to remove the center tree.  The large tree roots have severely impacted our courtyard and sewer system.  A tree contractor will be onsite Saturday, 9/16, to cut down the tree.  We will have the remnants moved back into our natural landscape.  The tree contractor will be closing off the area around the courtyard to keep people safe.  Once this work is completed, our grounds department will grind up the stump.  In place of this tree, we will be planting a small tree on 9/19.  This new tree will have a smaller root system and be able to thrive in this area.  Please let me know if you have any questions.  

Thanks,

Kim Clark
