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.
Please note: Although the location says 708, the address has been changed to 748. This report is in regard to a dangerous city tree. I am currently building a house at 748 N. Oolitic. There is a city alley right-of-way that runs behind my property from West 12th to West 11th. Only part of this right-of-way is actually used as for vehicle traffic. From roughly my northern property lot to West 11th St, the right-of-way is trees and grass. Within this section, there is an Ash tree that is dying/dead. This tree is in a location where any limbs or the entire tree itself would fall on my brand new house, my fence, or the shed I will be having placed in my backyard. As you can imagine, this is of huge concern to me. I am hoping the city could remove this tree as quickly as possible before any damage occurs. Right now it can be as easily accessed as it ever will be because my shed is due for delivery in 7 to 8 weeks and the rest of my fence is due to be installed not soon after that. With the wind and storms this time of year, this tree scares me. Believe me, I would have dealt with this sooner, but the tree wasn't in this condition last year. I hope you can help me out asap. Thank you.
These hand rails stick into the public sidewalk - a pedestrian not paying attention could run into these or a bicyclist could really have a collision with these. In at least two places. And they have put reflective tape on them which seems to indicate past problems.
