To the Editor:

Wow! Congratulations and thank you!

On Friday morning, August 9, at 6:45 a.m., we called the Princeton Police to report that a very large branch of an old maple tree had fallen and blocked the entire street in front of our house from curb to curb.

By 8 a.m. the only trace of the branch and many leaves remaining in the public right of way and neighboring properties was a bit of sawdust from the cutting of very large logs.

One hour and a quarter — an impressive job by Taylor Sapudar, Princeton’s arborist, and his specialized tree crew. A nice example of the benefits that we get for our tax dollars. When we told the story to some friends, they all said that wouldn’t happen in their towns.
