The Montague Street BID announced yesterday that Montague Street will be getting 50 or so tree-pit guards over the next month. The funding will come from the City Council and the Parks Department will handle the installation. “The planting and protection of trees across our City is an important part of our environmental agenda and a valuable way to improve the quality of life in our communities,” said Council Member David Yassky who arranged the funding. All the trees on Montague will also get a fresh batch of topsoil and organic mulch as part of the upgrade. Meanwhile, the parking meters on Montague are also getting a tune-up.
