Follow up on case #168883 about trees and vines growing up around the Norway spruce on the east side of the park between the tennis courts and the Woodlawn Shelter. I got an email saying that the issue had been resolved. It has not, unless that means it has been reported to the groundskeepers for clean up in the fall. Please clarify. Thanks!

Hi. The footpath between Southdowns and Greenwood Avenue, which is part of a 'safe route to school', is blocked by an overgrown honeysuckle, which needs to be cut back. It is a danger to walkers and cyclists and makes wheelchair access difficult, as everyone has to go round it onto private property. Could you please cut it back? Thank you.

There was a noticeable decrease in water pressure this morning. We thought it could be a leak in our house, but the neighbors told us they had a drop in water pressure also.

I'm interested in getting a free wood chip drop for area tree companies. I was told there is a city platform to arrange a drop, but can't find it here. Do you know how that is working now days?

Referencing case #168961 which was filed 6/14/19. I contacted Lee Huss several months even before that. I just spent $4000.00 on tree work and am about to spend another $4000.00 to remove and prune old and dangerous trees on my property. All I have asked of Forestry is to remove one City tree. ONE. It's an Ash that is covered with vines and is 1/2 dead if not completely dead. Not only is its health an issue, but there has been no question in the past about removing City Ash trees because of the emerald Ash borer. Lee Huss told me that it would be removed, but it has not. I am ready and willing to clear and reseed the area once the tree and stump are removed. I have been patient because I realize that I'm not the only tree in the City. However, I also realize my tree is in an area of the City that often gets dismissed. I would like to have the sick, invasive vine-covered, and potentially infested, City tree (including the stump) that is restricting my ability to landscape and improve my property to the level that I wish, removed. Thank you.
The tree is on the City right-of-way at the back (northeast) corner of 712 N. Oolitic St. - where the gravel alley intersects with W. 12th Street.
