Michigan Avenue reconstruction and tree preservation

Summary

Neighbors on Michigan Ave (N. 13th to N. 18th) don't want the mature tree canopy cut down during reconstruction and want a seat at the planning table. The mayor says the project won't be in the 2027 budget and no design exists yet, but old utilities will eventually force some tree impacts.
