Temporary Closure of O’Brien Park for Removal of Declining Tree

On Wednesday, June 18^th  at 8 a.m., O’Brien Park will be temporarily closed to allow for the removal of a large Sugar Maple tree that has reached the end of its natural life.

This tree has been carefully monitored by Township staff over the past several years. Unfortunately, its health has significantly declined, and it now poses a risk to public safety. While the decision to remove mature trees is never taken lightly, the safety of park visitors and the surrounding community is our top priority.

Work is expected to be completed by noon on June 18, with pedestrian and traffic control measures in place throughout the morning to ensure a safe environment for all.

We appreciate the community’s understanding as we take this necessary step to maintain the health and safety of our public spaces.
