New alderman sees no need for action on dead tree!

In the charming old town of Bad Bergzabern, a grotesque sight is causing discontent among visitors: a maple tree on Eichamtsstrasse that was sawed down months ago currently stands as an oppressive memorial in the cityscape. The tree, which was cut down to a height of around 1.50 meters, is now infected with a fungus, which is permanently tarnishing the appearance of the spa town. Despite the change in the city garden department, where a new deputy has been in office since the summer, no initiative appears to have been taken to remove the moldy dead wood, as shown suewpress.de is reported. The ongoing condition raises questions that many citizens are asking: Why was the tree cut down in the first place? And when will an attractive solution finally be found?
