There is a tree that seems dead in front of our condo complex. According to the online tree information, this is a street tree, and it is number 30477. We are interested to know if the tree will be removed? And if we have an option of weighing in on a replacement tree? We would love to have another tree planted. Thank you for your time!
The street view is fully obstructed by weeds at the intersection of Euclid and 2nd street. When going South on Euclid and attempting to make a left hand turn (east) on 2nd, you cannot see oncoming traffic to your left due to vegetation between the sidewalk and the road. I have almost gotten in an accident twice at this intersection due to pulling out and jot seeing an oncoming car which was blocked by the weeds. This is especially a problem for cars versus trucks due to the height.
Bradford pear on the northeast side of the church property that is in the tree platt and listed as a city tree is overgrown and totally surrounds power, cable and phone lines. It needs to be removed. Thanks!!
The larger of the two trees in front of 830 W 4th St has several dead limbs. Please remove them, or, if the tree is diseased or otherwise beyond salvageable, please replace tree with an Armstrong Maple, a suitable street tree. Thank you!
The street tree at the SE corner of the property has limbs that hang low over the sidewalk. Would it be possible to have it trimmed up so that walkers can use the sidewalk without having to duck down? Thanks!
The tree in the front of my home is jeopardizing my and my neighbor's roofs. We have three large silver maples here surrounding my home. The neighbor's giant, healthy silver maple broke in multiple points during the recent storms, destroying my roof and the back half of my house. It's costing about 15k in repairs, and my insurance took half of my claim amount away in non-recoverable depreciation and the deductible, so I only have enough to fix the roof even though my ceilings, floors, walls and electrical fixtures were all damaged as well. Additionally, the flood damage caused extensive mold growth throughout the back of my house. We are trying to work together to take care of these trees so this does not happen again, especially since I have to replace the whole roof. They are working to address one of the trees by taking out a loan, but the one in front of my house is on city property, and it would be good for us to get those larger overhanging branches trimmed back. Howe St becomes like a wind tunnel over on this corner when it storms and the trees are dangerous at that height. Additionally, there is a tree on the back side of my property in the alleyway between my house and the Optima Dermatology Center. The tree is overgrown and pulling down on the power lines that are connecting the pole to my house and my other neighbor's house. I will contact Duke about this, but they said on their website that they will only address the portion that is affecting the main power lines, not the lower power lines. In this particular case, the tree is affecting both the lower and upper lines, so I'm not sure whose jurisdiction that would be. It would only let me include one image, but I have three that I can send you to get a better look.
The street tree in front of my home had a large portion of the trunk fall earlier this year. It is a very messy Bradford Pear that has always been a nuisance and not very happy and I am hoping that it can be removed. I had an arborist out to look at other trees on the property and he also pointed it out that it would be good to take down if that is an option. Thank you.
