I wish the Coppergate Centre luck in their attempt to win permission to fell the trees in St Mary's Square.
I understand the reasons why you have asked for them to be removed and the common sense approach is to remove them. However, the "part-time greens" and "rent-a-protester" groups that suddenly appear in York when so-called "sensitive" issues arise may have other ideas.
Nobody likes to see trees removed, but for valid reasons such as yours, and the pledge you made to replace with smaller trees, then common sense must prevail.
