Description
Maple tree -- large broken limb is hanging over sidewalk -- could hurt people or damage cars. Breeze may bring it down at any time.
This maple tree is one of three in a row, all dying, regularly dropping large limbs. Four other maples of the same type and vintage have fallen in the same block in the past few years.
These are likely to cause major damage when they fall.
I request removal of all three dying maples. I will care for replacement trees.

The trees are on Newport Drive at Amherst Avenue.
The address is 1329 Amherst Ave, which is on the corner at Newport Drive.
Please note! The corner seems to cause confusion!
I made a request recently (via 311) and a tree service trimmed the tree on the Amherst side of my property. That tree is younger, smaller, and healthy.
The dying trees--dropping large limbs, including one that is currently hanging precariously--are on Newport Drive.

Please *please* -- for the sake of smart government -- please include the additional information:
The problem trees are on Newport, not Amherst. The house is on a corner.
Otherwise the same bureaucratic mistake may happen again.
