Struggling Village tree on Susquehanna Avenue

The Village of Cooperstown does a yearly assessment of all of the trees in the Village.

“The assessment went well this year. We were fortunate to have five members of the Tree Committee able to attend. We did it with 5 sets of eyes which is fantastic,” Cindy Falk, Deputy Mayor and Chair of the Streets Committee.

“We have a number of village trees where it’s clear that parts of them have either already dropped their leaves or never had leaves at all this year,” Ms. Falk said. “We wanted to make sure we captured that and weren’t mistaking it for what normally happens in the fall, that’s why we did the survey earlier this year.”

“The Village is responsible for the trees that are between the sidewalk and the street, or within the village right of way,” she said. “We had some unusual weather this year that caused a lot of problems. Large branches came down, entire trees came down,” Ms. Falk said.
