Pin Oak is a poor selection on this site. Soils in this area of South Burlington are neutral to slightly alkaline. Pin Oak requires acidic soil or it will suffer iron deficiency. Possible
substitutes are Swamp White Oak, Burr Oak or shingle Oak
Red Maple also requires acidic soil to prevent manganese deficiency
Recommend substitute for Canada Red Cherry. This tree is highly susceptible to black knot disease.
Trees planted along the community rec path and access road should be moved a minimum of 6ft(preferably 10ft) off the path to provide rooting area and increase clearance over the path
Not really a landscape issue, but all relocations of the tree nursery have been completed, the labeling for rows to be relocated and rows to be retained is opposite of what it should
be
