The removal work will begin at 8:30 a.m. and is <br /> expected to be completed by noon. While the tree is being removed, the south lane on East 11th <br /> Avenue and the east lane on High Street will be closed. <br /> A city tree crew is removing the maple because it is in extremely poor health, with dead <br /> major limbs and deep rotten areas. A replacement tree will be replanted the same day. <br /> The city responds to calls from local residents to inspect the health of trees in the right- <br /> of-way and prune or remove trees that could pose a hazard to motorists, pedestrians, and other <br /> <br /> users of the right-of-way. <br /> <br />
