Last November, the planning and building department launched the survey, which asked people to check out three types of lighting displayed in the medians, and then go online to vote for their favorites. Option 1 showed the longstanding practice of wrapping the trunks and branches of the trees in white string lights, Option 2 showed three-color “champagne mini lights” in the branches, and Option 3, created by profes- sional lighting designer Meredith Nole, involved up-lighting. The fourth option was no lights at all.

EVERYBODY LOVES the Monterey Peninsula’s pines, oaks and cypresses. Literally, not one person openly calls for doing these species harm, or expresses the belief that they aren’t important, and no local policy exists that is to the trees’ detriment or is callous about their significance. Protecting them is probably the No. 1 local priority. In many towns, you even need a permit to prune a medi- um-sized branch. On the other hand, even the most ardent tree-hugger uses wood 100 times a day. Not only are wood and wood products now ubiquitous, they also played a vital role in the development of the modern world, in which people live healthier, wealthier and happier lives than they ever did before. Which is to say, no matter how protective Carmel feels about its trees, its citizens have much to be grateful for that previous generations cut down and used so many trees, and that forests continue to be harvested for a multitude of purposes. Which brings us to the question of whether two small oaks can be removed to protect the structural integrity and beauty of the World War I memorial on Ocean Avenue at San Carlos Street. The forest and beach commission is reluctant to see them removed, of course. That’s what it’s there for. One of the failures of modern government is that when an agency or deliberative body is created to deal with a specific issue, it is usually packed with members who advocate for one side of that issue. That’s why the historic resources board is always calling for things to be protected, the public works department always wants more money for public works, and, yes, the forest commission usually calls for the protection of trees, no matter the circumstances. But decisions such as the fate of those two oaks call for a balancing of compet- ing interests, which is what more senior bodies, such as the planning commission and city council, are there to provide. In this case, the final decision is clear: The trees should go. Like the thousands of oaks in town, the two in question are lovely. the CPUC’s decision.
