Fire brigade waters trees
From tomorrow, Wednesday 25 July, the Chemnitz fire brigade will be assisting the staff of the Parks Department with the unscheduled and necessary watering of street trees. The reason for the watering is the acute drought and expected temperatures of around 30 degrees.
Tomorrow morning, the fire brigade will mobilise two fire engines, drive to the relevant locations and water the trees. A member of staff from the Parks Department will be on the fire engines to coordinate the work and ensure that the trees are watered properly.
New plantings and young trees in particular will be supplied with water.
The street trees will be watered at least until Friday. The operation can also be extended as an option.
