While not commenting directly on the article about tree removal, I'll take this space to complement the city tree removal program that removed a large city tree that fell in my driveway in a recent wind storm. I couldn't get my car out of my garage and the sidewalk was blocked. I called the city and within two hours a team showed up. Two hours later the tree had been cut up, chipped, and all the debris removed. What fast service. Thank you.
