The ash tree removal project is a result of the Emerald Ash Borer infestation which has caused the death of thousands of ash trees in Huron-Kinloss. The Township of Huron-Kinloss has now authorized Savage Bros tree contractors to put all ash trees safely on the ground, and any hazard trees in this parcel of land. The trees are being put on the ground due to safety concerns regarding falling trees or tree limbs. Work will start in Spring 2023 (weather permitting) and will be completed by May 2023. During this time, the Walpole Trail Shoreline will be closed to the public. We apologize for the inconvenience. The ash trees were identified by orange dots last fall. The tree branches and wood will be cut into lengths and piled along the shoreline road allowance property. Residents are welcome to any wood remaining. Any chipping required will take place in the spring / summer / fall of 2023.
The Township will be promoting a tree planting program in the Walpole Trail Shoreline in the Spring of 2024. Please contact recreation@huronkinloss.com to participate in a tree planting program.

The Township of Huron-Kinloss has removed all the ash and hazard trees from the Blairs Grove greenspace on Municipal property that we are aware of. The drain is functional, however in rough shape and will be graded and cleaned out in 2023.
Thank-you everyone for your patience while the work was in progress.
BACKGROUND
Blairs Grove Green Space Ash Tree Project work started in November 2022 and was completed by December 2022. During that time, the Blairs Grove green space was closed to the public. The bulk of the trees (approximately 125 trees) was removed by loggers, and tops will remain in the green space beside the open ditch.
The blue outline on this Map, indicates where the Ash trees were removed.
The Township of Huron-Kinloss authorized Crawford Loggers to remove all ash trees, and any hazard trees in this parcel of land. The trees are being removed due to safety concerns regarding falling trees or tree limbs.
