• Wayne to Plant 52 Trees. One Resident Says, After Ash Borer Infestation, That's Not Enough (tapinto.net) — Wayne officials just approved up to $25,740 to plant 52 new trees, but some residents argue that's far too little after hundreds were removed due to emerald ash borer damage. At a recent council meeting, leaders weighed long-term replacement costs against tax impacts and other priorities like police staffing and equipment, signaling that full canopy restoration could take years.
