The building site at 87 Hawkes didn’t escape last week’s Nor’easter — at least two of the big pine trees bordering Deerfield toppled over. (I wonder if they made a noise? Probably, because they’re no longer in a forest . . . ba dum dum! I’m here all week folks.) Luckily they fell into the cleared space and not into the condos.
Another tree fell over onto the stone wall bordering Hawkes:
But to give credit where credit is due, the crew cleared those trees within 24 hours. Now, they’re back to grading the old farmhouse site. I guess they’ll probably take tomorrow off what with the snow-blizzard-nor’easter-pocalyse that’s predicted.
So….if a tree falls during a storm in the middle of a construction zone, should the developer reactively apply for a tree removal permit and be responsible for planting replacement trees?

And they survived Hurricane Floyd, etc. But could not survive progress and thirst for tax revenue.
