[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have lived in a neighborhood with the tree obsessed and they can get quite ridiculous.

A lot of time trees may appear beautiful and healthy from the outsides but inside they have fungus or are rotting. This harms of the integrity of the tree and a bad storm could bring down the tree or it's even possible that it just reaches a point and breaks. off a limb from disease inside.

Despite having certified arbor professionals talk to the neighborhood about this, people would still insist that the tree should be saved even when the professional would say the tree is dying, it is a hazard, the fungus or bugs can infect other healthy trees. It was crazy. [/quote]

Would love more specifics on this alleged thing you are outraged about - having dealt with UFA if a tree is dying they will grant a permit for its removal and will do so right away if the tree is a danger to people or property.  If you removed a tree based on an experts opinion but without UFA permission you broke the law and deserve to be called out on it.[/quote]

I'm hearing that UFA is getting less accepting of removing trees solely because they are a danger to property. People yes, property maybe. [/quote]

Hearing where?  Count me skeptical.[/quote]
