Removal of tree in Depot Square for 300th Anniversary town clock - The Tree Committee requests that the tree to replace the one removed in Depot Square be planted on the Battle Green to continue to fill out the allees of trees on each side of the Green . We would accept the replanting of the removed tree (if that is feasible) or planting of a new tree if that is more economical. If a new tree is planted we are open to a change in species.
