Comments on: When is a City Tree Worth Saving?
Let’s be civil.
The Flathead Beacon encourages vigorous discussion and lively debate, but we will delete comments that attack other readers, make accusations we can’t verify, stray too far off topic, criticize local businesses (call them if you have a problem), convict someone of a crime, use profanity or are simply judged to be in bad taste. We don’t always have someone moderating comments, so we ask for your help: If you see a comment that violates these ground rules, or you simply deem it offensive, please e-mail webmaster [at] flatheadbeacon.com.

The views expressed in the comments section do not reflect those of the Beacon.

What a great idea.  I am proud to be from kalispell, when i hear of such forward thinking.  Kalispell should be the leader in the state when it comes to Urban Forestry.  Trees are what we are all about.  We harvest them and we grow them.  Thats why it is so beautiful here.  Do, we have an Urban Forester on staff?  If not we should.  Trees are worth it to this citizen.

Ditto.  Trees provide us with cleaner air (remove dust and particles), shade, and many other benefits.  I have owned two houses in Kalispell and on both lots I planted many trees.  At my current home I planted an additional tree on the street and maintain all 3 of my boulevard trees.  We need to plant more trees!  Every boulevard needs trees at a minimum of every 40 feet.  If you do not have some call the city and they will plant them for you at no cost!!!
