Driving north on Mix Avenue from Benham Street, opposite the area of the ice skating rink is a bank of trees on the West side (across from the rink) that overhang Mix Avenue traffic lanes - 1/2 to 2/3 over the roadway. It is time that the property owner/s or the Town removes ALL the tree branches that overhang the traffic lanes.
In addition, the sidewalk on many sections of Mix Avenue, West side, are overgrown with weeds and leaf litter making walking challenging.
We think that the apartment building owners and property managers should care for these areas as they do the actual rental property. And the Town should be sending notices to them to remind them of their civic responsibility. Why doesn't the town issue warnings?

These branches fell last night(Nov 30). They’re huge! Tree is very sick and branches continue to fall. This tree was slated for removal but nothing happened. This damage should show clear potential for serious future damage such as property damage and power line damage. Tree needs to be removed. Location is 77 Valley Rd Hamden, Ct

There are two trees on Kenwood near the corner of Klarman that need to be removed. Both trees are dead and pose a threat due to branches regularly falling off.

In front of 45 Harrison Drive, there are two large trees. The home owners are elderly and are being contacted by neighbors about cleaning up the leaves from the town trees. The owners do not have the capacity to do this and would like the trees removed.

The tree is dying. There are several dead, gray sections which no longer grow leaves and the branches have been dropping for some time now, frequently getting stuck in the power lines. We recently had to have a line reconnected after an especially large branch took it down. With the stormy season coming soon, we hope this tree can be taken down before it presents a serious hazard. Thank you.

I reported this problem 2 yrs. ago and thank you for your response, but the brush has gotten worse. Is it possible for you to have equipment and take out the brush completely instead of having workers trying to clear by hand? Our properties on Morse St butt up to the rear field on Newhall St, the former Hamden Middle School. The town mow's the field but doesn't mow near our fence. Is it possible for the town to cut down and get rid of ALL the weeds and brush against the fence line for good. This is causing many animals to dig under the fence and into our yards. Also after a hard rain the brush is swampy causing home to mosquitoes. Myself and neighbors at 283 & 287 Morse try our best on our side of the fence to kill the brush from growing.

Thank You in advance

For drivers exiting Spring Garden Street onto Ridge Road, there is a bush near the northwest corner of the intersection (on the verge), that severely limits the site line. Can the bush be removed? This would dramatically improve the situation. Thanks for your attention to this matter.

There is a tree with a lot of deadwood on the Hamden Trust/water company side of Mather street It has been falling with greater frequency onto Mather Street. If someone is home we move it out of the road, but we are concerned that a serious accident could occu.r.

Overgrown weeds along Hartford Turnpike are making it difficult to turn from Mulberry Hill Street onto Hartford Turnpike. Please come to trim them back. Thank you.

Weeds obstructing the view for turning on to Hartford Turnpike from Mulberry Hill Street. It's so nerve-racking to turn here.

Tree by the sidewalk curb has very low hanging branches, may pose hazard to passerby especially when dark. Requesting town to trim these low hanging branches.
