Julio,

Contact Jim Rooni 512-451-2178 at the Texas Forest Service in
Austin and also the local Ag Extension agent Ronald Leps
512-943-3300(who happens to sit in the same building as the head of
Williamson County Road and Bridge) in addition to your county
commissioner (certified letters to the latter 2 work well). The county
did the same to us a couple of years ago. Did you notice they also
didn't seal any of the cuts they made? Nor did they sterilize their
equipment in between cuts.

Jim said the county was setting us back 100's of years in terms of oak
wilt by using the equipment and methods that they do. Ours was not the
first time they have been warned - if enough folks complain maybe we
can finally put a stop to this.

Are you sure it's "County?" Maybe it's the developer of some nearby
spot they are trying to sell.
