The Committee reviewed the ordinance <br /> and decided that the City should not get involved in paying for the planting of boulevard <br /> trees. Members were concerned as to where you would draw the line if other <br /> neighborhoods requested the similar thing. The Committee also felt that it was not the <br /> City's responsibility to plant the boulevard trees as a noise barrier to Snelling Avenue, as <br /> Mrs. Daub's requested. Members felt that if residents wanted to plant their own trees that <br /> they should do so according to ordinance and be responsible for maintaining them as well. <br /> Cindy Walsh mentioned that the rotary would be planting trees in Arden Hills this year and <br /> that if they chose, they could put some trees in this area. The Committee decided to <br /> revisit this issue periodically. A possibility of a bulk tree sale was also discussed. <br /> • <br />
