Please help - our "inner city" neighborhood is trying to build a greenspace over huge stormdrains (underground) -these are NOT sewer drains!. We planted 40 trees - Anaqua and Redbud over a 3 block area. The City is trying to get us to remove the trees - "because the roots will clog the stormdrains". I am no arborist but i need help - ammunition - in fighting this. Any info on these trees roots etc. would help -- these drains are dry most of the time esp. now as we are in a drought San Antonio Tx-- thanks
