Description

A massive deadly tree branch fell from this elm around noon Sat April 17 - see picture of downed branch. I hate to see a tree come down, but this one MUST come down asap or have a serious pruning of massive splaying branches that are jagged and dying. Previous homeowners at 3302 requested the tree come down, but the city refused, and look what happened. I see another concerned resident request at DPW78370. Will share these requests with neighbors/insurance companies if any further damage/injury.

Details

Please indicate issue observed: Tree appears unhealthy, diseased or rotting
Are any utility lines running through the tree?: No

Need to report a large limb that has broken in a tree and if it falls it can pose a real safety issue; caller is concerned; it's an old COR tree and limbs have fallen before about a month ago. Caller is calling back because there's another limb of concerned that has broken recently and is hanging. Tree is on the corner of Stuart and Tliden.
