For me the next question is....How long is it going to take for the shade trees to be mature enough to reach the stated goal? The trees they want to plant do grow like weeds. They take years, a lot of them, to grow. What about the root systems? If I’m not mistaken roots for oaks spread out quite a bit, tearing up all sorts of concrete, etc. But, then again, the liberals have thought all of that through, right?

Many streets in Old Town Key West are lined with these types of shade trees. The sidewalks that surround the base of the trees are uneven, buckled, and torn up. I have seen many people trip and fall over the years because of the condition of the sidewalks. I have also been a victim.
