We are sorry but we are not taking immediate action with this report. It is your right to cut back any part of a tree that is overhanging your property, you must ensure that the cutting does not affect the health of the tree or interfere with nesting birds. You must also check that the tree does not have a preservation order. Any interference with cables should be reported to the relevant utility provider. Thank you for reporting this matter.
State changed to: No further action

Thank you for update. This tree is on skdc land and is your tree! I've reported that it's growing into the cables...no longer my responsibility to report to utilities, now yours. As far as growing over my driveway then you could gave told me in your response whether it has a TPO or in Conservation area. I've reported it...no longer my responsibility but if it does cause damage to my property then be aware that I've already reported it!

...and today your contractors, Maplebeck Tree Care, are working down Churchill Ave....and I don't believe it. Every other tree is being addresses other than the one I identified while responding to you yesterday. What a shambles! What does it take to get what is the one that's needing more care to be addresses. I've done my bit, how about some reciprocation.
