Arborist report contradicts Park Department

The Tulsa World reports that an independent expert has examined the trees, and in sharp contrast to the Park Department's position, the Certified Arborist concludes that all the 'aging, damaged and diseased' trees marked for destruction are only 20 to 40 years old, pose no immediate threat, and need only 1-2 hours of routine maintenance to return them to health.

CITY OF TULSA: Bring out your dead!
PERKINS: Here's one.
CITY OF TULSA: Ninepence.
TREE: I'm not dead!
CITY OF TULSA: What?
PERKINS: Nothing. Here's your ninepence.
TREE: I'm not dead!
CITY OF TULSA: 'Ere. He says he's not dead!
PERKINS: Yes, he is.
TREE: I'm not!
CITY OF TULSA: He isn't?
PERKINS: Well, he will be soon. He's very ill.
TREE: I'm getting better!
PERKINS: No, you're not. You'll be stone dead in a moment.
CITY OF TULSA: Oh, I can't take him like that. It's against regulations.
TREE: I don't want to go on the cart!
PERKINS: Oh, don't be such a baby.
