(Newcastle, Washington) – Following the tragic incident on November 2, and subsequent community concerns submitted through our SeeClickFix portal regarding tree safety, the City of Newcastle has engaged a professional arborist to review the tree conditions along the Newcastle Golf Club Road.
The arborist's report identified several trees requiring attention. The City is currently collaborating with the property owner to address these concerns promptly and ensure the safety of the area.
We appreciate the community's ongoing engagement and patience.
