No tree “rumor” knocked down

Pockets of dirt areas have been etched out along the route of Walhalla Streetscape, but there’s no truth to a rumor that the state DOT won’t let the city have trees along the newly-laid sidewalks.  It’s a rumor that Dan Pollock, president of Partners for Progress, wants to put to rest.  Pollock says, “We are in the process of negotiating species of trees that DOT will accept and where we would like to place them in terms of Streetscape.  But there’s no question that we are going to have trees on the sides of the street in Walhalla,” he says.
