In partnership with the Municipality of North Grenville, Kemptville Campus has hired a professional tree care and consulting company to prune and remove select trees on Campus.
Many diseased trees identified by the Campus Forester are being removed, as they have been affected by the invasive disease Emerald Ash Borer (EAB); others as they are damaged, nearing the end of their life cycle or pose a health and safety concern.
This work will begin Monday, October 4, and is expected to continue for several weeks depending on weather and other factors. To optimize safety, contractors will schedule their work near high-traffic areas such as schools and play yards, to be completed between 3 - 7:00pm.
In 2022, the Campus will be working towards a Campus-wide tree replanting program to replace those trees removed.
