I one expects to need tree law until they need tree law please help
On January 19th I notified my city government about a city owned tree leaning over and threatening my property. I still have the claim information and am able to log in to the portal and see it’s still open. Over the past weekend we had severe weather which partially knocked the tree over now the tree is an immediate threat to collapse in onto my property. Whereas before the tree was mostly vertical and now it’s well you can see the photos. I’m no engineer but my assumption is the only thing holding up the tree this the bunches of vines that are inter connected to other trees that are also on city property. I notified the city yesterday that the tree had fallen and they told me they made it a “high priority” and sent someone out to photograph the tree. I called my insurance company who told me it may be covered. Due to other issues I cannot afford to pay the deductible unless it’s an absolute emergency repair. The photo of the bare tree is the photo from January 19 when I filed the claim with the city. Everything else is pretty self explanatory.
