Street Trees

In Bryan Park and Elm Heights, most (all?) tulip poplar trees are dripping honeydew. I am an entomologist and know that this is fairly normal but I’ve never seen it on such a large portion of trees.

The city trees between the sidewalk and street lower branches are in the way of walkers and some are dead and brittle posing a safety issue for pedestrians.
As I reported last year (ticket #181156) there is poison ivy on one of the street trees in the tree plot. These trees are in the Treekeeper database and so I must assume that they are under the city's care. The photo here shows a robust, hairy vine and the berries have come in. It needs to be removed before the birds poop the seeds around.
A tree planted by the city a few years ago was damaged by the storm today, June 25 2023. A large branch has fallen, blocking the sidewalk. It is too large for us to move. The city will have to remove it and probably plant a new tree.
Mature Maple tree along the street in front of the house has one large dead limb over the sidewalk & one large cracked limb over a parking spot.
Tree limb cracked; branch & leaves at windshield height
Dead tree in City ROW
Tree to the left of the drive way along the street possibly has the emerald ash borer disease. Part of it is dead. Possible hazard of falling or spreading the disease to other trees.
The tree in front of this house, along the street needs to be trimmed back. Its limbs have grown over the sidewalk creating very poor sidewalk access. Thank you!
The trees along the street in front of the church need to be trimmed back. Limbs are blocking the sidewalk access all the way up to the top of the hill at the countryside street intersection. Thank you
