After hearing that nearly 30 of those trees could soon be cut down, she could only think of one thing: the wildlife.
In the following weeks, more owls called Newman's backyard home.
"It's just really hard to think of all these old trees that are habitats, because they're habitat for the owls, the squirrels, the birds, and so on, it's hard to think where they're going to go," Newman shared.
CBS Sacramento took her and her neighbor's concerns to Tree Lodi, a local nonprofit that works with the city that originally did the evaluation at Legion Park.
"In this case, there's high voltage lines along the north property line that the trees are starting to negatively impact," Tree Lodi President Steve Dutra said. "We don't want that for the community members. Safety is high priority."
We asked Dutra about the owl impact.
Mitigation efforts also include ground and aerial surveys and inspection so of the trees.
"I hope that they would find another way of doing it," Newman continued. "If the decision's made, I just hope that they look to make sure there's no nests up there or anything before they actually do it."
Tree Lodi plans on taking their findings from the evaluation to the council during their October 15 meeting, and if approved, they will start removing and replacing trees in November.
