    The picture is of the SAME tree (left and right side) right in front of the house. One part of the tree is completely dead, and this section needs to be cut down. Thank you.

    Please remove the tree in the Humphrey/Atlantic island. It is very difficult to see cars on Atlantic when driving on Humphrey towards Lynn - - especially now that the poles are installed. I used to pull over to the right for safety and looking to Atlantic on the left before continuing on Humphrey. Now I look quickly, hold my breath, say a prayer and gun it...

    Submitting a request for proper examination and trimming of large tree between 9 Lawrence and 17 Lawrence Rd. I have submitted a request prior for the same tree after a large branch almost fell on our house, however no action was taken. Despite multiple requests for some type of action, the large limb that does loom over our house has continued to shed large branches and on a few instances have fallen while performing landscaping in close proximity. Most recently, as the picture attached shows, there was a series of branches that fell as I was walking my daughter and dog on the sidewalk. While we were not under the tree at the time, I witnessed the branches falling as we were approaching. I am asking for some sort of action this time to review the tree and the danger that it poses for the safety of myself, my family and my house. Thank you!

    The gate at the playground at Phillips Park is broken and does not close. It is not in alignment at the bottom so while there is a latch .. it doesn’t meet the pole. It is a safety concern for parents as the playground is close to the parking lot. Please take a look at it and see if it can be fixed. Thank you!

    There are 3 trees on my street that have been shedding branches and one that has had multiple limbs fall on the power lines. 2 of the trees are on the other side of the street and the other tree on the odd number side where a limb overhangs my house and continues to shed branches. I have concerns given the size of the trees that more limbs will come down and have catastrophic consequences since each tree has multiple branches that are dying.

    We have a sick tree in front our house which most likely fall on our neighbor's driveway. I noticed that the base of the trunk has a new crack and the tree has lifted on two sides which results in leaning towards my neighbor's yard.
    I had another large maple fall on my house a few years back so this is the second beautiful tree that might be lost. How could we get new trees planted in place of the one we lost and now might lose another?
    Thanks,

    This has been reported four times with ZERO follow up. There is a large broken branch stuck in tree in front of 80 Magnolia on town property. It is about to fall. Someone will get hurt. Does a Michele P. actually exist?
