Not if it's just random branches that don't impact the tree's health, no. But it might be a good idea to contact an arborist to determine whether or not the branches you want to trim, would or wouldn't impact the tree's health.
That's what I'd do. Pay an arborist for his professional assessment and recommendations. If they allow just pruning and general trimming on branches that hang over your property, then proceed. If it involves anything more than that, then you'd need to get in touch with the property owner of the tree (if it's executive, then amenity authority. If it's country club, then The Villages developer).
