Trees in Front of the Cathedral: Court Allows Felling – Was That the Only Solution?

Answer

What are residents in Palma asking for instead of cutting down the trees?

Many residents want a more transparent process, including an independent tree inspection that is made public. They also want transitional measures such as crown securing, a marked rescue corridor and a proper replanting plan. For many people, the main concern is that the square should stay green without ignoring real safety risks.
