Description
I am reporting a hazardous situation involving a tree located on city property between my property line and the road. Recently, the tree has begun to drop limbs onto the street, and one of these limbs has damaged the top of my child’s swing set. This poses a significant danger to pedestrians and vehicles passing by on Wisteria Ave. I kindly request immediate assistance to address this issue to prevent any potential accidents or further damage. Your prompt attention would be greatly appreciated.
