Who Will Pay Letter to Editor on Elm Tree Removal
A letter questions who should bear the cost of removing dead elm trees from the parking strip in front of a residence at 115 Macnolia Ave. It discusses a Marion district court ruling about city funds, home rule in Muscatine, and whether taxes should cover city wide tree work. The piece notes tax burden concerns for residents without dead elms and says councils may be forced by courts to change practices.
