Sidewalk Trees and Tree Guards in Lefferts Manor

At the Lefferts Manor Board Meeting last night, our President Ben
Edwards, initiated action for board members to assess the missing tree
guards, missing trees and need for stump removal on both sides of Lincoln
Road and Fenimore Street, Flatbush to Rogers Avenue and on Maple, Midwood
and Rutland, Flatbush to Rogers Avenue so that missing tree guards in
these locations can be requested.

We are pleased to see that there is interest and support from so many of
our neighbors and hope you will be willing to help us in this regard. We
are urging you to contact the Lefferts Manor Board member on your block
before this weekend to offer your assistance.
