The thought of 200 or so of those trees is so appalling we have no words.
Good for you for trying to confront the City. Keep trying. We ran into a situation with one of our cities where they were butchering tree roots during a sidewalk replacement project. Their initial response to our telephone calls was that the "concrete guy said it wouldn't hurt the trees".
We kept at it, phone calls, meetings, confrontations, presentations to the City Council, more phone calls, meetings, confrontations. We finally got the project halted and the job specs changed. (We even bought them a book and took it in for them to read.)
It can be frustrating but someone has to do it or they will never change their thought patterns.
