Not uncommon for locust trees to have dead wood within the canopy. The tree does not appear to be in distress and is will not be removed. Branches may be trimmed by a certified arborist after a consultation with the city's Tree Warden.
If you would like to discuss this issue further please contact the Department of Public Works at (978)281-9785 to set up an appointment with the Director.

Mr. Thoms,
There is no shortage of trees in need of removal, citywide. We have removed over 500 in 2020. We will continue this effort to manage the City’s tree inventory. We will be back to Seaside in the early fall for additional tree removal and planting.
Unfortunately, the public responsibility ends where private property begins. The tree at Emerald and Washington St, is on private property. We have no authority to simply remove a privately owned tree, nor offer the services of removal. Also, there is no expectation that a homeowner, adjacent to a dying public tree, has the responsibility to remove it, the responsibility is only when the tree is on private property.
