Chisinau Councilors Address Citizen Concerns Over Central Park Tree Removal

Chisinau Councilors Investigate Tree Cutting in Central Park A recent controversy surrounding the removal of trees in Chisinau's Stefan cel Mare Central Park prompted an investigation by two municipal councilors from the PAS party. Citizens raised concerns about the scale of the tree removal, prompting the councilors to visit the park and review the relevant documentation. "We came here today to address concerns from Chisinau residents about the tree cutting," stated one of the councilors in a video posted online. The video shows several tree stumps on a grassy area of the park. After reviewing the permits, the councilors confirmed that the tree removal was legally authorized. However, the authorization includes a mandatory replanting clause. The councilors explained that new trees will be planted in less densely populated areas of the park to ensure the new trees thrive. "We are committed to ensuring that Chisinau remains a green city and will monitor the replanting to ensure it's done properly." said the second councilor. The incident highlights the importance of transparency and accountability in urban planning and environmental management. The councilors' proactive response demonstrates a commitment to addressing citizen concerns and ensuring the park's continued green spaces.
