      Nah. The tree provides valuable cooling shade and biodiversity. Trees can provide 10-15f cooling shade in cities, which is clearly way more valuable than a single parking space.

      The hazard is the blotchy concrete job over its roots when instead the sidewalk can curve outside of and around it like the poster is saying.

        That specific tree, is a hazard…I didn’t say all trees, that specific tree is.

        The blotchy concrete job, is because of the tree. Relocate or replant a new tree.

          I like that relocate option, we can relocate the street parking into the void, and then relocate the sidewalk into where the street parking was

        sidewalk is only hazard because tree grew.

        Tree is hazard.
