Tree rotation causes taxpayer concern

As a citizen concerned about the city’s projected budget deficit, I am very curious why the city trees on Fifth Street at Fountain Square are being replaced for the second time in the last three months. The original trees that were there were just leafing out and looking good when they were unceremoniously chopped down and replaced with new, smaller trees. That was around March/April. This week I saw Evans Landscaping removing those trees and putting in new ones.

If this is how the city utilizes its taxpayer funds, it is no wonder there is a projected budget deficit!

Could someone please explain why the original trees were removed/destroyed, and why the replacement trees are now being replaced?
