Description
Very large and dangerous dead tree branches hanging over the road at the intersection of Maurice and Victor that look like they're about to break and crush something or someone. Numerous neighbors have voiced concerns. Please trim back ASAP. Thank you.

This one is particularly bad. It was already partially chopped last year by a landscaping service and it just looks unhealthy.
I heard a neighbor two years point irony and say that he's intentionally parking his car underneath there in the hopes it comes down some day.
A DPW truck came by with two guys a day or two ago. They took a look at it and who knows what conclusion they came to.

It's sheer negligence on the DPW's behalf. If that tree falls and hurts someone, then that responsibility will all be on your department for ignoring a legitimate warning.

Cleo, what your reporting of the dead limb is correct. But this is not the City of Malden that you need to report it to. You need to go to Www. Seeclickfix.com and report it to the City of Medford it is located in Medford, Ma.
Thanks

Its on Medford Property we looked it up on our Maps before is responded to you. If you are having trouble putting it on Medford you can also Google City of Medford and go to their web page which has an attachment for See Click Fix where you can enter it right from their web page. Or you can call the DPW in Medford directly to put in your request at 781-393-2402

Thanks. I had to log out of the "Malden" side of the app. You'd think the tech would be "smart enough" to automatically switch towns but apparently it's not.
Also, the maps Seeclickfix uses is inaccurate as there's no stretch of road between the corner of Victor and Maurice. It's just one big junction/corner there.

Not a problem ... Good luck
