Earlier this week, Quincy Quarry News’ exposéd how the City of Quincy was finally providing likely desiccated and so dead trees with some likely too late attention after leaving them balled and burlapped for too long without planting them promptly per best practices nor seeing to their proper care after the Quarry previously exposing this arboreal abuse.

So much, apparently, for also acting locally to address climate change by increasing the local tree population at a rate commensurate with the long-ongoing local explosion of new, large and mostly high-end for Quincy apartment projects.

On the other hand, with soaring interest rates putting a number of touted additional large and all but invariably apartment developments on at least hold, maybe the City of Quincy might at least now endeavor to catch-up on needed tree plantings.

For but one example In particular, replacing the likely hundreds of trees planted by the City of Quincy in recent years that likely died this past summer as the city had no watering plan in place when a brutal drought hit Eastern Massachusetts.

Speaking of exposés, Quincy Quarry exposéd how the City of Quincy koched-up on a full makeover of a local residential street.

While the head of the Quincy Public Works Department tried to slip the blame onto the outside contractor, per an impacted abutter the City of Quincy pretty much koched the pooch on planning and project oversight.

Then again, poor planning and even worse project management are hallmarks of the Koch Maladministration and thus this latest of all but innumerable kochings-up was ultimately only to be expected.

Even on something as prosaic as redoing a short run of residential street.

Three trucks, three trees. A coincidence? Doubt it.

And for the cherry on top of the cherry on top of the sundae, Quincy Quarry happened upon three out of state eighteen wheelers hauling cut Christmas trees within but hours of the raising of two cut Christmas trees along Kim Jong Koch Plaza in front of Quincy’s inexplicable two city halls and a third tree in nearby Presidents Park, a multi-million dollar park which next to no one uses other than a few homeless and likely at least some drug dealers.

Needless to say, already at this point Quincy Quarry has tasked its tree expert Douglas Fir to determine if the trees are related and, if possible, if they might also be from out of state.

While further examination is in process, the trees appear to be of the same species but not are Norway or Blue Spruces favored by Quincy’s Mayor Koch for chainsawing as a key part of his taxpayer-funded annual celebrating of the year-end holiday season.

Also, as well as again, so much for addressing climate change locally. 

After all, there are already perfectly lovely living Christmassy trees adjacent to both City Hall as well as framing the Generals statuary plaza in Generals Park whereas the cut trees will soon enough be producing methane gas as they decompose after they are chippered sometime after New Years.

Then again, bigger as well as bombastic is the Quincy Way during the profligate reign of the Koch Maladministration.
