Rettie noted and would have to be removed whether or not the road is widened. The toll of trees in Maple has brought many complaints to the village trustees there but no action has been taken and there has been no move to have a replanting program. that those who take them down don’t seem to think how long it takes to grow trees. “I hope the people of King City will act before it happens to them,” he con~ eluded.
