The Minneapolis Park Board <br /> has numerous dead and dying Elm trees on Stinson Boulevard and <br /> Gross Golf Course in the City of St. Anthony. Staff members <br /> have contacted them and requested that the trees be marked and <br /> removed. Most of these have not been and Minneapolis staffers <br /> contacted by phone and letter have refused or neglected to even <br /> acknowledge the letters or calls . We even offered to mark <br /> the trees if they were too busy and received no response.
