Reply to comment by Animanialmanac in What are the trees with white flowers blooming all over the city? by tealccart

The city does a HORRIBLE job w trees. Our neighborhood association in upper fells is how I finally got a new tree. I dug the hole and planted it too

I wonder if there are too many vacancies in the arborist department, maybe no one works there anymore. A tree fell on my street last year, we reported it as leaning, in need of pruning back in 2020. It’s been lying on the ground for at least eight months since it fell in the storm. I called 311, my neighbors called 311. One young man cut the larger part of the trunk so it doesn’t block the road but the base still sits on the sidewalk and grassy area where it fell.
