I am a lover of trees for their beauty, shade and help to Fresno's air quality. I feel that a lot of Fresnans will not water their trees during our long, hot summer, simply to save on their water bills. Please keep the trees alive even if you can't afford to keep your lawns green.

I also hope the city waters trees in the medians. Many of them are already in sad shape. The trees need us, and we need them in our hot urban environment.
