Frasin de 250 de ani, tăiat de Primăria Oradea

A 245-year-old ash tree in Oradea was cut down by the municipality shortly after being included in a tree master plan. Despite claims of it being completely dry, photos show parts that appear alive. The tree, considered the second oldest in the city, was part of a proposed ecological walking route. Experts had assessed it as medium risk, with no imminent danger of collapse. The decision to cut it down raises questions about the technical evaluation and adherence to legal protections for remarkable trees. The case highlights inconsistencies in the municipality's tree management practices, as other residents face delays for tree maintenance requests.
