    The request is for the removal of three little leaf linden trees measuring 2 to 4 inches dbh (diameter at breast height) and one white oak tree measuring 6 inches dbh on Avenue Louis Pasteur near the intersection of The Fenway due to a green infrastructure pilot program being undertaken by MASCO to restore the historic tree canopy along the avenue.
