Update from Community Services: The reported tree(s) has been evaluated and is not completely dead or in imminent danger of falling, therefore no City action is warranted at this time. The maintenance of trees that are located in the right-of-way is the responsibility of the abutting property owner. To obtain a permit for tree removal, the property owner may contact Zoning at 727-893-7471.

If you feel that this tree is posing a safety issue for residents and that the abutting property owner is not maintaining it as they are required to do, please contact the Codes Compliance Assistance Department at 727-893-7373.
