Overgrown <br /> tree limbs and branches can harm pedestrians, block traffic <br /> signs, and impede emergency .vehicle and delivery vehicle access. <br /> They may also limit our ability to keep your streets clean and in <br /> good repair by blocking the access of our street sweepers and <br /> paving equipment to the entire street surface. <br /> We are sending you this letter because trees located on your <br /> property have been identified as failing to meet. City tree <br /> trimming requirements. 1 have enclosed an information flyer that <br /> explains the City requirements and a notice about a special <br /> chipping service that should make disposing of your trimmings <br /> easier. <br /> elLj t a f the ear. to trim :tr and we ' e <br /> you i1 t his opportun to ..` y iot your street trei` � ri <br /> here to.tielP " you with this pro) ect .
