"Report: Tree canopy declining in Seattle's parks and forests"

Larry Lange (seattlepi.com):
The decline in park trees, largely unnoticed until now, might surprise some. City Councilwoman Sally Bagshaw, a self-described tree advocate who chairs the council's Parks & Seattle Center Committee., said "it was news to me."

It wasn't to Mark Mead, forester for Seattle's Parks and Recreation department. MORE...
Howie P.S.: Wake up and smell the chainsaws, Sally. If you're wondering who to thank for this, call the City of Seattle, Dept. of Planning and DEVELOPMENT.
