Our Urban Forester and I visited the residence to speak with them about their trees/shrubs because they are in the City Right of Way. I explained the sight obstruction issue and he explained how they could properly trim or move their foliage w/out harming the plants. The owners were understanding and very quickly remedied all obstructions. The Stop sign view is adequate as well as line of sight. I contacted the concerned citizen, via phone call, to inform them the issue had been resolved.

Reinspected sight distance at this location today. Owners have trimmed all foliage as requested. Sight distance is now adequate at this intersection.

The city Arborist (Lee) and I visited the site and residence today. Lee spoke with the owners about appropriate trimming for the types of foliage they have. I explained line of sight issue the foliage causes. Lee asked the owners to remedy the obstruction issue within 4-6 weeks. They were cordial and understanding of the concern stating they would take care of the trimming.
