Arrondissement Le Sud-Ouest was open to the idea of improving its administrative procedures regarding the management of citizens’ requests to cut down a public tree.
A citizen had complained that the Borough had sent her the bill relating to such a situation sixteen (16) months after the tree had been cut down at the request of her contractor who had to replace a water pipe. The citizen also opposed the fact that she had not been informed in advance of the related costs.
The Borough is currently assessing how to better inform citizens and improve its billing practices.
