The city of Urbana is on the verge of losing all it's city owned ash trees, the reason, the Emerald Ash Borer.

Urbana Arborist Mike Brunk says he's found about 90 dead or dying Ash trees in town since mid June.
 
He believes the insect will cause the city to lose all its Ash trees in the next two years.
  
Brunk says the borer has also been killing trees by the dozens in Champaign since its discovery in 2012.
