Town of Swampscott PLUS

Requesting removal of street tree. This tree was tagged for removal 3 years ago but was not removed. It is rotted at the base and the majority of upper trunk and limbs are dead. Two 12"+ limbs have already fallen from this tree on to nearby garage and crushing childrens backyard play structure. It is leaning over the adjacent house, town guard railing and retaining wall. It is dangerous for the adjacent properties, for neighbors parking or using the street/sidewalk walking dogs, and for children going to/from school.

Two large mature trees on island appear dead and ready to topple over

Overgrowth onto sidewalk forcing pedestrians to walk on a dangerous street where cars notoriously speed

This tree is dying, it is apt to fall on a home on either side of it.

Hi there,
I just want to make sure I am on the list for forestry to trim the dead branches on this oak (once the leaves come out). I have attached a screenshot of my request from last year.
Thanks

This tree was planted by DPW about 5 years ago....never bloomed or really grew...please replace.
The tree is affectionally known on Stetson Ave as the "Charlie Brown XMAS Tree!" Thank you Maureen Sullivan - 781-715-9145.

Areas around the outside of the track are being taken over by weeds, trees etc. Used to be manicured but hasn’t been this year.

large evergreen shrub completely obstructing the sidewalk. it has been that way for a while now, but when i saw two women with strollers leaving the sidewalk and proceeding into the road to get around shrub, i feel it is time to remedy this overgrown shrub concern. i have observed numerous cars traveling at excessive speeds down this road to humphrey street and it will only take one incident where a pedestrian gets injured.

Tree at 56 Elwin Street is overgrown and a public safety issue. The tree obstructs drivers vision when turning in either direction from Elwin St to Foster Road. Picture attached is from 10 years ago, now it is extremely overgrown.
