THE MONTEREY COUNTY PLANNING  DEPARTMENT  INTENDS TO ISSUE A PERMIT FOR  REMOVAL OF 7  OF NEARLY 200  “SCENIC AND HISTORIC”  WALNUT TREES,  THAT LINE BOTH SIDES OF SPRECKLES BOULEVARD.    TANIMURA AND ANTLE,  THE PRODUCE COMPANY THAT OWNS THE PROPERTY,  REMOVED  2  TREES  BEFORE CONTACTING THE COUNTY,  CLAIMING  THAT THOSE  2 TREES  WERE IN  VERY  POOR  AND DANGEROUS  CONDITION.

OVER 300 RESIDENTS SIGNED A PETITION IN MARCH CALLING UPON TANIMURA AND ANTLE TO “Do what’s right and cut only the trees that need to be cut”, AND REPLACE THE BLACK WALNUT TREES WITH MATURE TREES, NOT SAPLINGS.
