Update on Trees
There have been many homeowners complaining about recent work done by the City of Alameda to trees in our community. Many trees have been drastically pruned and now appear disfigured and unsightly. CHBIOA has written a formal complaint to the City on this matter.
The City has responded and informed us of the following:
- The trees have been pruned to address a fungal infection (Fusarium). There is no treatment that can address this, so the infected portions had to be cut off in Phase 1.
- With the infected portions removed, some trees will recover during the cool season as new growth occurs.
- In 2025, the City will assess which trees may require additional pruning, and which are not recovering adequately and will need to be replaced.
- The City has agreed to work more closely with our Landscaping department in the future when projects like this arise.
