Thank you for submitting your tree concern to the Howard County Department of Public Works. Our staff will investigate this issue and respond.

Trees were inspected on 7/31/2018. This time of year the maple trees can get a Fungus that causes brown spot on the leaf which almost looks like tar. It can cause the tree to drop its leaves early but the trees are ok and they are not dying.

Thank you for reporting your issue/request to the Howard County Department of Public Works. The tree issue has been addressed and will be closed in Tell HoCo. If you require more information, please contact Department of Public Works Highways office 410-313-7450.
