Eyes on the road: Gainesville hopes to restart its tree project
Placeholder Image
Gainesville hopes to restart efforts to plant 180 trees at three Army Corps of Engineers parks as part of an “environmental stewardship” plan tied to the Clarks Bridge replacement project. The Gainesville Public Utilities Department is accepting proposals through Sept. 11 for the work, which would consist of “furnishing all products and all labor necessary” to plant the trees, according to a legal notice published Sunday. The city is planting the trees in exchange for receiving a corps permit to clear trees as part of utilities relocation in the bridge work on Ga. 284/Clarks Bridge Road at Lake Lanier.
