Rejected petition Overgrown tree issues becoming dangerous

We need these tree’s in our street to be cut back and maintained as much as possible as it’s becoming such a health and dangerous issue to the community and no one seems to be listening or helping.

More details

Cars are been damaged
People are slipping and falling on wet leaves, massive branches falling from tress
Houses suffering from no natural sunlight
Electricity bills sky high as lights are needing to be on during the day.
All because of overgrown mass amount of trees and bushes.
