AREA WAS LAST TRIMMED IN 2015 AND THE COUNTY IS ON A 10 TO 12 YEAR TRIM CYCLE - NEXT TRIM CYCLE WOULD BE 2025 TO 2027

This issue was recategorized from Tree Concern to Tree Pruning.

This tree was NOT trimmed in 2015. We called about this tree 3-4 years ago. I confirmed with neighbor whose yard is close to the tree. We were told trimming was done on a rotating basis, and would be done in 4-5 years. Trimming this tree is way overdue. The tree will probably be destroyed in a storm if you wait until 2025. It will fall on a car or on a person by that time.

Can someone please come to inspect? This tree was not pruned in 2015.

Investigated 4/4/22

Tree trimmed prior to arrival
