Back in July I mentioned that there’s oak wilt in Schenley Park. In the weeks ahead those trees will come down.
Councilman Corey O’Connor is holding an informational meeting about the project on Monday February 3, 6:00pm – 7:30pm at the Jewish Community Center, Levinson Hall B. (The main entrance is at 5738 Forbes Avenue in Squirrel Hill.)
See Councilman O’Connor’s flyer below for more information.
Not directly on point, but I read that foresters in the Upper Midwest (MN? WISC?) are excited that the extended deep freeze may penetrate the bark of trees and kill overwintering larvae. Think we might be so lucky here with emerald ash borers?
Maybe some good news will come of this awful weather!
