closed: Resolved #205061

Parks & Playgrounds:

Other: There is a large tree (ash or elm?) across from my house that appears to be rotted out from the inside. My neighbor spoke to a Parks & Recreation employee who shares our concern that it is structurally unsound. I worry that during the next big storm it will fall on one of our houses. Please move it to the top of your list for removal! I know there is another tree in Butler Park about two blocks east on W. 9th that is scheduled for removal. Thank you for listening to our concerns!

Tree does have some decay in trunk, but has compensated for this with more root growth in that area and is protected by an adjacent tree. will keep on our semi annual monitor list.
