[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, trees are naturally occurring. But there is nothing natural about a 100 year old giant oak or maple in a yard with nothing around it as a windbreak. They grow naturally like that in forests. They grow and self prune based on light availability from competing surrounding trees, and are not subjected to wind forces as a single standing tree. If you’re going to grow a giant tree by itself and mow everything around it, that’s not “naturally occurring”…and you’ll have problems that affect neighbors, thus the required maintenance. Forests don’t require “maintenance.” Urban, singular, enormous trees do. Suckers should be removed, the canopy thinned etc etc. Get read.[/quote]

Maintaining a tree so it looks nice is one thing, but there is no obligation to keep a tree from dropping debris and there is no obligation to even keep the tree healthy.  You are not obliged to spend 1 dollar maintaining a tree - but you do need to remove a sick or dying tree if it poses a threat to life or property.

I don’t know how some people here live in society.  [/quote]
