A couple of trees fell in the woods that border my property in between 3897 S Claybridge anda the assisted living facility. The house is rented and I don’t know the owners. One of the trees is blocking the sidewalk. Yesterday, I witnessed a mom with a little kid on a trike going into the street to try to get around it with a vehicle having to swerve to not hit them. I am concerned because there are a lot of folks who use the sidewalk and a high level of traffic, which increases the odds of an accident.
There are 4-5 Bradford Pear trees growing into the W Reynolds Rd so bad it has almost caused several accidents when two vehicles have to come through this area. The owner of the property has given permission renters to cut the trees all the way down (the renter doesn't own a chainsaw and is scared of the powerlines). They are also close to / underneath overhead cable / powerlines.
The large sweet gum tree in the right of way in front of our home has a very hefty branch that is growing directly toward our house and is very close to the front of the house and hangs down into my front garden. During large winds, the branch sways widely and is a danger to the sidewalk and our home. Can you trim the branch? Thank you!
Some branches from the tree are hanging too low, interfering with SUVs parking on the drive way or drive in/out of the garage.
Damage from recent storm. Treekeeper Site ID 38515, Kentucky Coffeetree. Unsure as to integrity, so wanted to check, especially as the cuts were made by a passerby during the storm (as the downed branch was blocking Kirkwood traffic). More photos available to send, too.
