Neglected Trees in Portland
This chapter discusses the failure to maintain and water newly planted trees in a neighborhood in Portland. The Portland Bureau of Transportation planted about 30 saplings two years ago, but the responsibility of watering and maintaining the trees was passed on to the owner of the area. As a result, many of the saplings have died or are dying. The lack of proper care for the trees is seen as a disappointment by nearby residents.
