It was too big for his Windsor Park yard, but Dean Munoz-Perez found a new home for a 45-foot Colorado blue spruce tree – City Hall.
Munoz-Perez’s tree was selected by the city to be part of the annual holiday display.
It will be moved to City Hall on Sunday morning after travelling from Munoz-Perez’s home, and is set to be decorated in more than 9,000 multi-coloured LED lights.
“We’re grateful to Mr. Munoz-Perez for contributing his tree for our holiday display at City Hall,” said city forester Martha Barwinsky.
“With its deep blue-green colour and full crown, it will be a showstopper.”
