So somebody in the city wants to plant more trees?<\/p>\n
They need to develop a plan to take care of the ones they already have. Currently, they simply ignore them until they fall, often damaging houses or personal property.<\/p>\n
I live in the Erin Glade area and we have had to endure broken windows, damaged roofs and siding, but the city will not assume responsibility for them.<\/p>\n
One home has several, 150-foot trees standing just a few feet from their back door, and a high wind will bend them dangerously close to the house. There will come a time when they will blow down. It’s not a matter of if, but when, and when they do, possibly two homes will be shattered.<\/p>\n
When the city is notified and concern is expressed, they will take a look then pronounce them in good shape as they are, without looking at their potential danger.<\/p>\n
During a windstorm, we have a lot of people praying as broken limbs rattle their roofs or siding, breaking windows or even a satellite dish.<\/p>\n
The city has their eyes shut and their ears plugged, but they want more trees to put more people in danger.<\/p>\n
