The fruitless pear on the land between the sidewalk and street could use pruning. It is located to the left of our driveway when looking at our house. It's got some thick branches that could cause the tree trunk to split. We did not plant this tree.
House is vacant and backyard is seriously overgrown with ivy and has nesting rats. Neighbors are mowing front yard so our cul de sac doesn’t look bad.Fence is falling down on 2 sides.
Owner/occupants are not mowing the grass.

Invasives in the right of way, the north property line, and along the creek including privet, poison ivy, burning bush, & multiflora rose.
Citizen called about tree across the street from her residence. Tree is enormous by her standards and a potential hazard for a single family rental adjacent to tree. By her summation the tree is a "when it falls" as opposed to an "if it falls." Can we, should we do anything?
Vegetation is encroaching into the walking/running trail around Winslow Sports Park on both the east and west sides.
