The Davis St. right of way, just south of my property is forested. I know that the city doesn't normally tend to the trees in this strip, but it's public property. I write because of two particular dead trees in this area--one a hazard to utility wires, the other temporarily leaning against a live tree but will eventually fall on our fence.May I show you these dead trees and ask if the city would be willing to remove them before they damage our property and the public utility lines?

Do private contractors have an obligation to clean up the street? This house on Southdowns (between Manor and Hawthorne) was paved and the street is a mess. It is not just stained, there is a lot of loose debris on the road from the paving process that could be cleaned up. Can the City contact the homeowner to find out who needs to get back out here to clean the street up and make their job site presentable? Thanks.

A pine tree in the creek on the south side of Sheridan between Sheridan and Southdowns is leaning a lot towards the road. Will you send a City arborist to check on the tree to see if it is at risk of falling into the street? Thanks.

The tree in the front of my home is jeopardizing my and my neighbor's roofs. We have three large silver maples here surrounding my home. The neighbor's giant, healthy silver maple broke in multiple points during the recent storms, destroying my roof and the back half of my house. It's costing about 15k in repairs, and my insurance took half of my claim amount away in non-recoverable depreciation and the deductible, so I only have enough to fix the roof even though my ceilings, floors, walls and electrical fixtures were all damaged as well. Additionally, the flood damage caused extensive mold growth throughout the back of my house. We are trying to work together to take care of these trees so this does not happen again, especially since I have to replace the whole roof. They are working to address one of the trees by taking out a loan, but the one in front of my house is on city property, and it would be good for us to get those larger overhanging branches trimmed back. Howe St becomes like a wind tunnel over on this corner when it storms and the trees are dangerous at that height. Additionally, there is a tree on the back side of my property in the alleyway between my house and the Optima Dermatology Center. The tree is overgrown and pulling down on the power lines that are connecting the pole to my house and my other neighbor's house. I will contact Duke about this, but they said on their website that they will only address the portion that is affecting the main power lines, not the lower power lines. In this particular case, the tree is affecting both the lower and upper lines, so I'm not sure whose jurisdiction that would be. It would only let me include one image, but I have three that I can send you to get a better look.

There is a pile of debris sitting along the edge of the road. This is on the east side of Manor Road, where Manor runs between Southdowns and Sheridan as it crosses over the creek. This looks like debris that came from the creek, maybe during a high water time. It just needs to be removed and cleaned up.
