The existing trees will not be touched. The Agent showed photos of the site where the septic was installed and where the garage was recently constructed. He noted a couple diseased pitch pines that should come down and an area where there are invasive vines. The trees need to be clearly flagged to make sure we know what is exactly being taken out.
