Description
* The tree has become uprooted and is severely damaging the public sidewalk. Large sections of the sidewalk have heaved upward, creating tripping hazards. * Several elderly family members and young children have already fallen on the raised sidewalk in front of my house. * The curb is being pushed outward into the street, creating a hazard for vehicles and pedestrians. * The tree is dead and unstable. During recent wind storms, large branches have fallen onto my front lawn and onto vehicles parked in front of the house. * Power lines run directly through the tree, increasing the risk of downed lines or electrical hazards during storms. * Young children regularly play in the front yard, and I am extremely concerned about the risk of serious injury from falling branches or the unstable tree itself. This situation presents an immediate and ongoing danger to my family, neighbors, elderly visitors, children, and the general public who use the sidewalk and street daily.
