On September 30, we held a neighborhood walk-through to see the planned layout of the trees. At that time, we mentioned that some of the bald cypress might be replaced by oaks. We did make that substitution, so instead of 10 bald cypress, there will be 6 bald cypress along with a scarlet oak, two chinkapin oaks, and a swamp white oak. Based on the quality of the available trees, we also approved substitution of 5 swamp white oak trees to take the place of 5 basswood trees, as the basswood were not in acceptable condition for the planting. All other trees are as shown on the layout discussed at the meeting. The contractor planted the trees and shrubs late in the week of October 14 at which time the tree planting phase of the project will be completed. There will be a volunteer event for tree mulching and shrub installation early next month. Weather permitting the contractor will be planting 30 new trees and 60 new shrubs. The tree and shrub species are as follow: Trees Shrubs Blue Beech Buttonbush Hackberry Spicebush Ironwood Elderberry Bald Cypress Nannybush Basswood Swamp White Oak Chinkapin Oak Scarlet Oak Good News! The project is completed, and this will be the final blog post for the project. We hope you found the information to be helpful and insightful regarding the current status of the project and upcoming work. The Village of Glenview will provide surveys in the future for you to complete regarding the construction work and notifications provided. Please take a few moments to complete this survey. The information will allow us to know what aspects of the project we are doing well at and which areas we need to improve upon in the future.
