Lawyers Debate Fate Of Two Trees At French Street Hearing
A public hearing in City Hall addressed removal and trimming of four trees on French street tied to moving a house at 126-28 French street purchased from the State of Connecticut by Benjamin Lavine. Swanson family lawyers argued against removal citing safety and urban value. Lavine’s attorney urged rights and tree health evidence plus beautification commitments. Decision from Deputy Tree Warden Ferinell expected within three days.
