my name is kevin mcroy, my wife and i own the house seeking to remove four illegal placed trees in front of our house. they're illegal planting and our neighbors' wishes. we bought our house in october 2013 for a home for a small family. we had a daughter 1 month old at the time. we planned to live in this house through her childhood and beyond. with our dream house we inherited four palm trees planted in in one tree basin in the #150id walk out front. these palms present numerous challenges to pedestrians and drivers. overhead please. the small mediterranean palm is growing diagonally over the sidewalk. it's in violation of dpw's own codes which calls for a 8 foot wide sidewalk, which in this case we only have 6 feet. you can see this tree will continue to be a nuisance for the many pedestrian dog walkers, children walking to school and baby strollers which we see on a daily basis. the mexican palm to the left is a nuisance to drivers. people parking their cars deal with its low hanging prawns and passengers exiting must duck to avoid the prawns. m the vertical clearance the only 6 feet
